PREFACE. 


In  presenting  to  the  American  Public  the  first  number  of  a  contem- 
plated series  of  Q,uadrennial  Registers  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal 
Church,  we  believe  we  have  met.  in  part  at  least,  a  long  existing  want. 

It  has  been  painfally  obvious  to  us  for  some  lime,  that  the  members 

of  our  own,  and  of  sister  churches,  were  laboring  under  great  mistakes 
with  regard  to  our  denofHinational  peculiarities  and  strength,  and  that 

w^e  were  destitute  of  comprehensive  and  rehable  data  for  the  removal 
of  their  errors.  With  the  exception  of  the  Almanac,  published  by  the 
New  York  Book  Concern,  (necessarily  very  limited  in  its  scope,)  our 
Church  has  hitherto  been  without  any  publication  exhibiting  our  sta- 
tistics, economy,  and  institutions,  in  a  popular  form.  The  Annual 
Minutes,  it  is  true,  have  partially  supplied  the  information  desired  by 
ministers,  but  their  peculiarities  of  arrangement  and  style,  have  pre- 
vented them  from  having  any  thing  like  a  general  circulation. 

We  have  not  the  presumption  to  suppose  that  we  have  presented  the 
Church  with  a  work  absolutely  free  from  error.  Such  a  thing  were  im- 
possible in  the  very  nature  of  the  case.  The  first  issue  of  a  work  of  this 
nature  must,  necessarily,  be  imperfect.  Every  thing,  however,  that 
toil,  liberal  expenditure,  and  care  could  effect,  w^e  have  done.  Our  in- 
formation, both  with  regard  to  our  own  and  other  churches,  has  been 
obtained  from  original  and  authentic  sources.  It  has  been  our  special 
desire  to  secure  for  the  work  a  character  for  reliability. 


IV  PREFACE. 

Our  thanks  are  due  to  the  Secretaries  of  various  Conferences,  Sy- 
nods, Associations,  Benevolent  Institutions,  and  to  individuals  connected 
with  Colleges,  Seminaries,  Charitable  Funds,  &c.,  for  the  assistance 
they  have  rendered  us ;  and  we  respectfully  solicit  a  continuance  of  their 
favors  if  the  sale  of  the  present  number  should  warrant  a  future  issue. 

HENRY  J.  FOX, 
WM.  B.  HOYT. 

Hartford,  June,  1853.

DEATH    OF    BISHOP    HEDDING. 

The  following  preamble  and  resolution  were  adopted  : — 

Whereas,  It  has  pleased  Almighty  God,  in  his  infinite  wisdom,  to  remove  from  among  us  by 
death,  our  senior  Bishop,  the  Rev.  Elijah  Hedding,  who  died  in  Poughkeepsie,  N.  Y.,  April  9th, 
1852,  in  the  72d  year  of  his  age,  and  in  the  52d  of  his  ministry.     Therefore, 

Resolved,  That  this  General  Conference  make  this  record  upon  its  journal  as  a  token  of  profound 
respect  for  the  deceased,  as  a  minister  of  unblemished  reputation,  deep  theological  knowledge,  sound 
experience  in  the  things  of  God,  of  childlike  simplicity,  and  holy  tempers  as  a  Christian — as  an 
able  and  impartial  administrator  of  the  discipline  of  the  Church,  sweetly  and  delightfully  blending 
together  the  dignity  of  the  Bishop  with  the  urbanities  of  the  Christian  gentleman — and  who  at  last 
died  in  peace  and  holy  triumph,  with  a  well-grounded  hope  of  immortality  and  eternal  life.  May 
we  follow  him  as  he  followed  Christ.

PART   I. — CIIUP.CH   DIRECTORY.  25 


Resolved,  That  we  sincerely  sympathize  with  our  beloved  superintendent  in  his  afflictions. 

Resolved,  That,  after  having  fully  examined  his  administration  for  the  last  four  years,  his  ad- 
ministration and  character  be  and  hereby  are  approved. 

Whereas,  Bishop  Hainline  has  tendered  his  resignation  in  the  following  language,  to  wit : — "And 
now,  I  think  that  the  circumstances  warrant  my  declining  the  office.  Eight  years  ago,  I  felt  that 
Divine  Providence  had  strangely  called  nie  to  the  office.  I  now  feel  that  the  same  Providence 
permits  me  to  retire.  I  therefore  tender  my  resignation,  and  request  to  be  released  from  my  official 
responsibilities,  as  soon  as  the  way  is  prepared  by  the  Episcopal  committee."     Therefore, 

Resolved,  That  the  resignation  of  Bishop  Hamline  of  his  office  as  a  Bishop  of  the  Methodist 
Episcopal  Church  in  the  United  States  of  America,  be  and  the  same  hereby  is  accepted. 

Resolved,  By  the  delegates  of  the  several  Annual  Conferences  in  General  Conference  assembled, 
that  the  Bishops  be  and  hereby  are  respectfully  requested  to  convey  to  Bishop  Hamline  the  ac- 
ceptance of  his  resignation  as  superintendent  of  the  General  Conference,  accompanied  with  a  com- 
munication expressing  the  profound  regret  of  this  body,  that  the  condition  of  his  health  has,  in  his 
judgment,  rendered  it  proper  for  him  to  relinquish  his  official  position  ;  assuring  him  also  of  our 
continued  confidence  and  affection,  and  that  our  fervent  prayers  will  be  offered  to  the  Throne  of 
Grace,  that  his  health  may  be  restored,  and  his  life  prolonged  to  the  Church.    Resolutions  passed. 

TENTH  DAY.

sermon  delivered  yesterday  by  Bishop  Waugh,  in  compliance  with  our  request,  on  the  recent  death 
of  our  venerated  senior  Bishop,  the  Rev.  Elijah  Hedding;  and  Bishop  Waugh  is  hereby  earnestly

rejoice  in  the  satisfactory  assurance  that  he  has  left  the  Church  on  earth  to  be  united  to  the  Church 
in  heaven,  and  that  in  life  and  death  he  had  made  manifest  the  power  and  exceliency  of  redeeming

that  her  husband  was  a  member  of  the  Philadelphia  Conference,  and  while  suffering  under  de- 
rangement, was  permitted  to  withdraw  from  his  connection  with  that  body,  thus  excluding  herself 
and  six  children  from  their  claim  on  the  Conference,  and  asking  that  the  dcision  of  the  Conference 
may  be  reversed  ;  and  the  committee  offer  the  following  resolution  : — 

Resolved,  That  this  General  Conference  has  no  jurisdiction  in  the  above  case,  and  therefore,  the 
prayer  of  the  memorialist  ought  not  to  be  granted.

The  committee  to  whom  was  referred  the  resolutions  proposing  the  collection  and  publication  of 
Episcopal  decisions,  reported  that  it  was  inexpedient  to  act  thereon. 

Also,  that  on  the  resolution  asking  alteration  in  the  discipline  by  the  substitution  of  the  word

Also,  that  on  the  resolution  relative  to  delegates  to  the  Wesleyan  bodies  of  England  and  Canada, 
it  was  inexpedient  to  send  a  delegate  to  the  former,  but  that  Bra.  George  Gary  be  appointed  to  visit

APPEAL    OF    N,    R.    PECK. 

The  action  of  the  Black  River  Conference  was  confirmed. 

BOOK  CONCERN. 

It  was  Resolved,  That  the  publishing  committee  of  the  Pittsburg  Christian  Advocate  be  author- 
ized to  draw  upon  the  agent  of  the  depository  in  Pittsburg  for  the  amount  of  the  claims  of  Rev.  Z. 
H.  Coston  and  of  Rev.  Or.  Elliot  against  the  Pittsburg  Christian  Advocate,  provided  they  do  not 
exceed  $2,600,  to  be  paid  at  the  earliest  convenience  of  said  depository,  and  entered  to  its  credit  at 
the  general  Book  Concern  in  New  York. 

Resolved,  That  the  amount  due  from  the  Pittsburg  Christian  Advocate  to  the  Pittsburg  Book 
Depository,  provided  it  does  not  exceed  ^400,  be,  and  the  same  hereby  is,  remitted. 

Resolved,  That  on  careful  examination  of  the  affairs  of  the  Northern  Christian  Advocate,  we 
are  gratified  to  find  that  its  circulation  has  increased  by  about  one-half,  during  the  last  four  years  ; 
and  that,  notwithstanding  it  is  published  at  the  exceeding  low  price  of  $1  per  annum,  its  finance 
is  in  a  healthful  condition,  affording  a  handsome  dividend  yearly.  We  are  also  happy  to  believe 
that  the  paper  is  lending  most  valuable  aid  in  establishing  and  extending  our  cause  in  the  field  of 
its  patronage. 

Resolved,  That  the  agents  at  New  York  be  instructed  to  establish  depositories  of  our  books  at 
Buffalo  and  Auburn,  N.  Y.,  at  their  discretion. 

Resolved,  That  we  deem  it  inconsistent  with  our  economy,  for  brethren  indebted  to  our  Book 
Concerns  to  memorialize  the  General  Conference  to  remit  their  debts,  without  having  first  applied 
to  the  agents,  and  failed  of  obtaining  from  them  n  satisfactory  settlement. 

Resolved,  That  the  petitions  presented  to  the  General  Conference  for  the  remission  of  debts,  be 
referred  to  the  agents  of  the  Concern  to  which  said  debts  are  due,  the  agents  being  the  proper  repre- 
sentatives of  the  General  Conference  in  the  premises,  and  endowed  with  full  power  to  settle  all 
claims  at  their  discretion. 

Resolved,  That  the  propriety  of  publishing  a  pronouncing  Bible,  and  also  the  propriety  of  pub- 
lishing the  discipline  of  the  Meth.  Epis.  Church,  in  the  French  and  Sweedish  languages,  be  referred 
to  the  book  agents,  editors,  and  book  committee,  at  N.  Y.,  to  be  disposed  of  at  their  discretion.

OF  THE  METHODIST  EPISCOPAL  CHURCH,  PUBLISHED  UNDER  THE  AUTHORITY 
OF  THE  GENERAL  CONFERENCE  OF  1848.* 


CONFERENCES. 

GENERAL    CONFERENCE. 

Ques.  1 .  Who  shall  compose  the  General  Conference,  and  what  are  the  regula- 
tions and  powers  belonging  to  it  ? 

Ans.  1.  The  General  Conference  shall  be  composed  of  one  member  for  every 
twenty-one  members  of  each  annual  conference,  to  be  appointed  either  by  seni- 
ority or  choice,  at  the  discretion  of  such  annual  conference  :  yet  so  that  such  rep- 
resentatives shaU  have  traveled  at  least  four  full  calendar  years  from  the  time  that 
they  were  received  on  trial  by  an  annual  conference,  and  are  in  full  connection  at 
the  time  of  holding  the  conference. 

2.  The  General  Conference  shall  meet  on  the  first  day  of  May,  in  the  year  of 
our  Lord  1812,  in  the  city  of  New  York,  and  thenceforward  on  the  first  day  of 
May,  once  in  four  years,  perpetually,  in  such  place  or  places  as  shall  be  fixed  on  by 
the  General  Conference  from  time  to  time :  but  the  general  superintendents,  with 
or  by  the  advice  of  all  the  annual  conferences,  or  if  there  be  no  general  superin- 
tendent, all  the  annual  conferences,  respectively  shall  have  power  to  call  a  General 
Conference  if  they  judge  it  necessary  at  any  time. 

3.  At  all  times  when  the  General  Conterence  is  met,  it  shall  take  two-thirds  of 
the  representatives  of  all  the  annual  conferences  to  make  a  quorum  for  transacting 
business. 

4.  One  of  the  general  superintendents  shall  preside  in  the  General  Conference  ; 
but  in  case  no  general  superintendent  be  present,  the  General  Conference  shall 
choose  a  president  pro  tern. 

5.  The  General  Conference  shall  have  full  powers  to  make  rules  and  regula- 
tions for  our  church,  under  the  following  limitations  and  restrictions,  viz.  : — 

1.  The  General  Conference  shall  not  revoke,  alter,  or  change  our  articles  of  re- 
ligion, nor  establish  any  new  standards  or  rules  of  doctrine,  contrary  to  our  pres- 
ent existing  and  established  standards  of  doctrine. 

2.  They  shall  not  allow  of  more  than  one  representative  for  every  fourteen  mem- 
bers of  the  annual  conference,  nor  allow  of  a  less  number  than  one  for  every 
thirty  :  provided,  nevertheless,  that  when  there  shall  be  in  any  annual  confer- 
ence a  fraction  of  two-thirds  the  number  which  shall  be  fixed  for  the  ratio  of 
representation,  such  annual  conference  shall  be  entitled  to  an  additional  dele- 
gate for  such  fraction ;  and  provided,  also,  that  no  conference  shall  be  denied 
the  privilege  of  two  delegates. 

3.  They  shall  not  change  or  alter  any  part  or  rule  of  our  government,  so  as  to 
do  away  episcopacy,  or  destroy  the  plan  of  our  itinerant  general  superintendency. 

4.  They  shall  not  revoke  or  change  the  general  rules  of  the  United  Societies. 

5.  They  shall  not  do  away  the  privileges  of  our  ministers  or  preachers  of  trial  by 
a  committee,  and  of  an  appeal :  neither  shall  they  do  away  the  privileges  of  our 
members  of  trial  before  the  society,  or  by  a  committee,  and  of  an  appeal. 

6.  They  shall  not  appropriate  the  produce  of  the  Book  Concern,  nor  of  the  Char- 
ter Fund,  to  any  purpose  other  than  for  the  benefit  of  the  traveling,  supernu- 
mary,  superannuated  and  worn  out  preachers,  their  wives,  widows,  and  child-

leaders'  meeting.  Nor  shall  any  one  be  licensed  to  preach,  or  recommended  to

CONDITIONS   OF   MEMBERSHIP. 
(From  the  General  Rules.) 


There  is  only  one  condition  previously  required  of  tliose  who  desire  admission 
into  these  societies,  "  a  desire  to  flee  from  the  wrath  to  come,  and  to  be  saved 
from  their  sins.-'  But  wherever  this  is  really  fixed  in  the  soul,  it  will  be  shown 
by  its  fruits.  It  is  therefore  expected  of  all  who  continue  therein,  that  they  should 
continue  to  evidence  their  desire  of  salvation. 

First,  By  doing  no  harm,  by  avoiding  evil  of  every  kind,  especially  that  which 
is  most  generally  practiced  :  such  as. 

The  taking  of  the  name  of  God  in  vain. 

The  profaning  the  day  of  the  Lord,  either  by  doing  ordinary  work  therein,  or 
by  buying  or  selling. 

Drunkenness  ;  buying  or  selling  spiritous  liquors  ;  or  drinking  them  ;  unless  in 
cases  of  extreme  necessity. 

The  buying  and  selling  of  men ^  women,  and  children,  with  an  intention  to 
enslave  them. 

Fighting,  quarreling,  brawling,  brother  going  to  law  with  brother ;  returning 
evil  for  evil ;  or  railing  for  railing  ;  the  using  many  words  in  buying  or  selling. 

Tlie  buying  or  selling  goods  that  have  not  paid  the  duty. 

The  giving  or  taking  things  on  usury,  i.  e.,  unlawful  interest. 

Uncharitable  or  unprofitable  conversation  :  particularly  speaking  evil  of  magis- 
trates or  of  ministers. 

Doing  to  others  as  we  would  not  they  should  do  unto  us. 

Doing  what  we  know  is  not  for  the  glory  of  God  :  as, 

The  putting  on  of  gold  and  costly  apparel. 

The  taking  such  diversions  as  can  not  be  used  in  the  name  of  the  Lord  Jesus. 

The  singing  those  songs,  or  reading  those  books,  which  do  not  tend  to  the 
knowledge  or  love  df  God. 

Softness  and  needless  self-indulgence. 

Laying  up  treasure  upon  earth. 

Borrowing  without  a  probability  of  paying  ;  or  taking  up  goods  without  a  proba- 
bility of  paying  for  them. 

It  is  expected  of  all  who  continue  in  these  societies,  that  they  should  continue  to 
evidence  their  desire  of  salvation. 

Secondly,  By  doing  good,  by  being  in  every  kind  merciful  after  their  power,  as 
they  have  opportunity,  doing  good  of  every  possible  sort,  and,  as  far  as  possible,  to 
all  men. 

To  their  bodies,  of  the  ability  which  God  giveth,  by  ^ving  food  to  the  hungry, 
by  clothing  the  naked,  by  visiting  or  helping  them  that  are  sick,  or  in  prison. 

To  their  souls,  by  instructing,  reproving,  or  exhorting  all  we  have  any  inter- 
course with ;  trampling  under  foot  that  enthusiastic  doctrine,  that  "  we  are  not  to 
do  good  unless  our  hearts  be  free  to  it.'''' 

By  doing  good,  especially  to  them  that  are  of  the  household  of  faith,  or  groaning 
so  to  be ;  employing  them  preferably  to  others,  buying  one  of  another,  helping 
each  other  in  business ;  and  so  much  the  more  because  the  world  will  love  its 
own,  and  them  only. 

By  all  possible  diligence  aud  frugality,  that  the  Gospel  be  not  blamed. 

By  running  with  patience  the  race  which  is  set  before  them,  denying  them- 
selves, and  taking  up  their  cross  daily;  submitting  to  bear  the  reproach  of 


t

Christ,  to  be  as  the  filth  and  offscouring  of  the  world  ;  and  looking  that  men 
should  say  all  manner  of  evil  of  thern  falsely  for  the  Lord's  sake. 

It  is  expected  of  all  who  desire  to  continue  in  these  societies,  that  they  should 
continue  to  evidence  their  desire  of  salvation, 

Thirdly,  By  attending  upon  all  the  ordinances  of  God :  such  are, 

The  public  worship  of  God  : 

The  ministry  of  the  word,  either  read  or  expounded  : 

The  supper  of  the  Lord  :  Family  and  private  prayer  : 

Searching  the  Scriptures,  and  Fasting  or  abstinence. 


ADMISSION    INTO    THE    CHURCH. 

Ques.  1.  How  shall  we  prevent  improper  persons  from  insinuating  themselves 
into  the  Church  ? 

Ans.  1.  Let  none  be  received  into  the  Church  until  they  are  recommended  by 
a  leader  with  whom  they  have  met  at  least  six  months  on  trial^  and  have  been 
baptized;  and  shall  on  examination  by  the  minister  in  charge^  before  the 
Churchy  give  satisfactory  assurances  both  of  the  correctness  of  their  faith .^  and 
their  willingness  to  observe  and  keep  the  rules  of  the  Church.  Nevertheless, 
if  a  member  in  good  standing  in  any  other  orthodox  Church  shall  desire  to  unite 
with  us,  such  applicant  may,  by  giving  satisfactory  answers  to  the  usual  inquiries, 
be  received  at  once  into  full  fellowship. 

2.  Let  none  be  admitted  on  trial,  except  they  are  well  recommended  by  one 
you  know,  or  until  they  have  met  twice  or  thrice  in  class. 

3.  Read  the  rules  to  them  the  first  time  they- meet. 


BRINGING  TO  TRIAL,  FINDING  GUILTY,  AND   REPROVING,  SUSPENDING,  OR  EXCLUDING 
DISORDERLY  PERSONS  FROM  SOCIETY  AND  CHURCH  PRIVILEGES. 

Ques.  1.  How  shall  an  accused  member  be  brought  to  trial  ? 

Ans.  1,  Before  the  society  of  which  he  is  a  member,  or*a  select  number  of 
them,  in  the  presence  of  a  bishop,  elder,  deacon,  or  preacher,  in  the  following 
manner  : — Let  the  accused  and  accuser  be  brought  face  to  face  ;  but  if  this  can 
not  be  done,  let  the  next  best  evidence  be  procured.  If  the  accused  person  be 
found  guilty  by  the  decision  of  a  majority  of  the  members  before  whom  he  is 
brought  to  trial,  and  the  crime  be  such  as  is  expressly  forbidden  by  the  word  of 
God,  sufficient  to  exclude  a  person  from  the  kingdom  of  grace  and  glory,  let  the 
minister  or  preacher  who  has  the  charge  of  the  circuit  expel  him.  If  the  accused 
person  evade  a  trial,  by  absenting  himself,  after  suflficient  notice  given  him,  and 
the  circumstances  of  the  accusation  afford  strong  presumption  of  guilt,  let  him  be 
esteemed  as  guilty,  and  be  accordingly  excluded.  Witnesses  from  without  shall 
not  be  rejected. 

2.  But  in  cases  of  neglect  of  duties  of  any  kind,  imprudent  conduct,  indulging 
sinful  tempers,  or  words,  the  buying,  selling,  or  using  intoxicating  liquors  as  a 
beverage,  or  disobedience  to  the  order  and  discipline  of  the  Church :  First,  let 
private  reproof  be  given  by  a  preacher  or  leader  ;  and  if  there  be  an  acknowl- 
edgment of  the  fault,  and  proper  humiliation,  the  person  may  be  borne  with.  On 
a  second  offense,  the  preacher  or  leader  may  take  one  or  two  faithful  friends.  On 
a  third  oflfense,  let  the  case  be  brought  before  the  society,  or  a  select  number,  and 
if  there  be  no  sign  of  real  humihation,  the  offender  must  be  cut  off. 


PART  II. — DISCIPLINE   AND   INSTITUTIONS.  189 


3.  If  a  member  of  our  Church  shall  be  clearly  convicted  of  endeavoring  to  sow 
dissensions  in  any  of  our  societies,  by  inveighing  against  either  our  doctrines  or 
discipline,  such  person  so  offending  shall  be  first  reproved  by  the  senior  minister 
or  preacher  of  his  circuit,  and  if  he  persist  in  such  pernicious  practices,  he  shall  be 
expelled  from  the  Church. 

4.  Nevertheless,  if  in  any  of  the  above-mentioned  cases  the  minister  or  preacher 
diflfcr  in  judgment  from  the  majority  of  the  society,  or  the  select  number,  con- 
cerning the  innocence  or  guilt  of  the  accused  person,  the  trial,  in  such  case, 
may  be  referred  by  the  minister  or  preacher  to  the  ensuing  Quarterly  Meeting 
Conference. 

5.  If  there  be  a  murmur  or  complaint  from  any  excluded  person,  in  any  of  the 
above-mentioned  instances,  that  justice  has  not  been  done,  he  shall  be  allowed  an 
appeal  to  the  next  Quarterly  Meeting  Conference  :  except  such  as  absent  them- 
selves from  trial,  after  sufficient  notice  is  given  them  :  and  the  majority  of  the 
traveling  and  local  preachers,  exhorters,  stewards,  and  leaders  present,  shall  finally 
determine  the  case. 

After  such  forms  of  trial  and  expulsion,  such  persons  shall  have  no  privileges 
of  society  or  of  sacraments  in  our  Church,  without  contrition,  confession,  and 
satisfactory  reformation. 


DATES  OF  DTPOETANT  ALTERATIONS  IN  THE  DISCIPLINE  FROU  1773  TO  1852. 

GENERAL  CONFERENCE. 

The  first  General  Conference  was  held  at  Baltimore,  1784, — sixty  preachei's 
out  of  the  eighty-three  in  the  connection  being  present.  At  this  Conference  it  was 
unanimously  agreed  to  form  a  separate  body  under  the  denomination  of  "  The 
Methodist  Episcopal  Church."  The  Episcopal  form  of  Church  government  was 
adopted,  and  the  episcopacy  made  elective  and  amenable  to  the  Conference.  Tlie 
form  of  discipline  adopted  was  substantially  the  same  as  the  large  minutes. 

1792.  To  the  question,  "  Who  shall  compose  the  General  Conference?"  it  was 
answered  :  "  All  the  traveling  preachers  who  shall  be  in  full  connection  at  the 
time  of  holding  the  Conference." 

1800.  An  additional  qualification  added,  namely,  to  "have  traveled  four  years." 

1804.  Provided  that  the  "four  years"  should  date  "from  the  time  that  they 
were  received  on  trial  by  an  Annual  Conference."

shall  have  traveled  at  least  four  full  calendar  years  from  the  time  that  they  were 
received  on  trial  by  an  Annual  Conference,  and  are  in  full  connection  at  the  time  of 
holding  the  Conference. 

2.  The  General  Conference  shall  meet  on  the  first  day  of  May,  in  the  year  of  our 
Lord  1812,  in  the  city  of  New  York,  and  theneeforvt'ard  on  the  first  day  of  May, 
once  in  four  years  perpetually,  in  such  place  or  places  as  shall  be  fixed  on  by  the 
General  Conference,  from  time  to  time.  The  general  superintendents  to  have 
power,  by  the  advice  of  all  the  Annual  Conferences,  to  call  a  General  Conference 
if  they  judge  it  necessary.

religion,  nor  establish  any  new  standards  or  rules  of  doctrine  contrary  to  our 
present  existing  and  established  standard  of  doctrine. 

2.  They  shall  not  allow  of  more  than  one  representative  for  every  five  members 
of  the  Annual  Conference,  nor  allow  of  a  less  number  than  one  for  every  seven. 

3.  They  shall  not  change  or  alter  any  part  or  rule  of  our  government, 
so  as  to  do  away  episcopacy,  or  destroy  the  plan  of  our  itinerant  general  super- 
interidency. 

4.  They  shall  not  revoke  or  change  the  general  rules  of  the  United  Societies. 

5.  They  shall  not  do  away  the  privileges  of  our  ministers  or  preachers  of  trial

members  of  trial  before  the  society,  or  by  a  committee,  and  of  an  appeal. 

6.  They  shall  not  appropriate  the  produce  of  the  Book  Concern,  nor  of  the 
chartered  fund,  to  any  purpose  other  than  for  the  benefit  of  the  traveling,

children. 

Provided,  nevertheless,  that  upon  the  joint  recommendation  of  all  the  Annual

1832.  The  former  proviso,  at  the  close  of  the  restrictive  rules,  was  struck  out, 
and  the  following  substituted  :  "  Provided,  nevertheless,  that  upon  the  concurrent 
recommendation  of  three-fourths  of  all  the  members  of  the  several  Annual  Con- 
ferences, who  shall  be  present  and  vote  on  such  recommendation,  then  a  majority 
of  two-thirds  of  the  General  Conference  succeeding  shall  sufl[ice  to  alter  any  of  the 
above  restrictions,  excepting  the  first  article  :  and  also,  whenever  such  alteration 
or  alterations  shall  have  been  first  recommended  by  two-thirds  of  the  General 
Conference,  so  soon  as  three-fourths  of  the  members  of  all  the  Annual  Conferences 
shall  have  concurred  as  aforesaid,  such  alteration  or  alterations  shall  take  effect. 

1836.  The  ratio  of  representation  was  altered  to  one  for  every  twenty-one;  and 
to  allow  this,  the  second  of  the  restrictive  rules  was  changed  to  the  following  : — 

1.  They  shall  not  allow  of  more  than  one  representative  for  every  fourteen 
members  of  the  Annual  Conference,  nor  allow  of  a  less  number  than  one  for  every 
thirty  :  provided,  nevertheless,  that  Avhen  there  shall  be  in  any  Annual  Conference 
a  fraction  of  two-thirds  of  the  number  which  shall  be  fixed  for  the  ratio  of  repre- 
sentation, such  Annual  Conference  shall  be  entitled  to  an  additional  delegate  for 
such  fraction  ;  and  provided,  also,  that  no  Conference  shall  be  denied  the  privilege 


of  two  delegates 


ANNUAL  CONFERENCES. 


There  was  nothing  in  relation  to  Annual  Conferences  until 

1792.  When,  in  answer  to  the  question,  "  Who  are  the  members  of  the  District 
Conferences  ?"  the  following  answer  was  given  :  "  All  the  traveling  preachers  of  the 
district  or  districts  who  are  in  full  connection."  It  was  decided  that  they  should 
meet  annually — that  they  should  represent  not  less  than  three,  or  more  than 
twelve  circuits — that  the  bishops  be  authorized  to  unite  two  or  more  districts  to-

1779.  For  the  following  reasons  the  Conference  were  of  the  opinion  that  brother 
Asbury  ought  to  act  as  general  assistant  in  America.  1.  His  age.  2.  He  was 
originally  appointed  by  Mr.  Wesley.  3.  He  was  joined  with  Messrs.  Rankin  and 
Shadford  by  express  order  from  Mr.  Wesley.  It  was  agreed  that  after  hearing 
every  preacher  for  and  against  whatever  was  in  debate,  the  right  of  determination 
should  be  with  brother  Asbury. 

1784,  Authority  given  to  the  superintendents  to  form  yearly  Conferences  in 
the  interval  of  the  General  Conference.  Agreed  that  the  superintendents  be  paid 
by  the  Conferences  proportionably. 

The  functions  of  a  superintendent  defined  as  follows :  To  ordain  superin- 
tendents, elders,  and  deacons  ;  to  preside  as  a  moderator  in  our  Conferences  5  to 
fix  the  appointments  of  the  preachers  for  the  several  circuits  ;  and,  in  the  intervals 
of  the  Conference,  to  change,  receive  or  suspend  preachers,  as  necessity  may  re- 
quire ;  and  to  receive  appeals  from  the  preachers  and  people,  and  decide  them. 
N.  B.  No  person  shall  be  ordained  a  superintendent,  elder,  or  deacon,  without  the 
consent  of  a  majority  of  the  Conference,  and  the  consent  and  imposition  of  hands 
of  a  superintendent,  except  in  the  instance  provided  for  in  the  twenty-ninth 
minute. 

The  superintendent  made  amenable  for  his  conduct  to  the  Conference,  who 
were  to  have  the  power  to  expel  him  for  improper  conduct,  if  they  saw  it  necessary. 

On  his  ceasing  to  travel,  without  the  consent  of  the  Conference,  it  was  decided 
that  he  should  not  thereafter  exercise  any  ministerial  function  whatsoever  in  our 
Church. 

If  by  death,  expulsion,  or  otherwise,  there  should  be  no  superintendent  remain- 
ing in  the  Church,  the  Conference  were  to  elect  a  superintendent,  and  the  elders, 
or  any  three  of  them,  were  to  ordain  him  according  to  the  Liturgy. 

1787.  In  the  discipline  of  this  date,  the  superintendents  are  first  called  bishops. 
This  year  the  question,  "  Is  there  any  other  business  to  be  done  in  the  Con- 
ference," was  answered  as  follows:  "The  electing  and  ordaining  of  bishops, 
elders  and  deacons."  (This,  it  will  be  remembered  was  prior  to  the  distinction 
between  General  and  Annual  Conferences.) 

1780.  The  superintendents  made  amenable  to  the  Conference,  who  have  power 
to  expel  them  for  improper  conduct.

Ques.  2.  If  by  death,  expulsion,  or  otherwise,  there  be  no  bishop  remaining  in 
our  church,  what  shall  we  do  ?

a  recommendation  from  two-thirds  of  his  Quarterly  Meeting  Conference.  Pro- 
vided, that  no  one  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  an  elder  who  holds  slaves  where 
the  laws  will  admit  of  their  emancipation. 

1816.  The  rule  so  modified  that  a  person,  bringing  a  recommendation  from 
his  society  or  class,  might  be  licensed  as  a  local  preacher  after  personal  ex-

SLAVERY. 


1780.  The  Conference  formally  acknowledged  slavery  to  be  contrary  to  tho 
laws  of  God,  man,  and  nature ;  and  contrary  to  the  dictates  of  conscience  and 
pure  religion.  Expressed  its  disapprobation  of  all  its  friends  who  kept  slaves  and 
advised  their  freedom. 

1783.  Made  the  duty  of  assistants  to  deal  faithfully  and  plainly  with  local 
preachers  holding  slaves  in  States  where  they  might  enjoy  their  freedom. 

1784.  Those  local  preachers  in  Marj'land,  Delaware,  Pennsylvania,  and  New 
Jersey,  who  refused  to  emancipate  their  slaves,  to  be  suspended.  Agreed  that 
those  traveling  preachers  who  were,  or  who  might  be  possessed  of  slaves,  and  re- 
fused to  manumit  them,  should  be  employed  no  more. 

1784.  Several  new  rules  adopted  for  the  extirpation  of  slavery.  The  first,  re- 
quiring every  member  within  twelve  months  after  notice  being  given  by  the  assist- 
ant, to  emancipate  all  slaves  in  their  possession  under  the  age  of  forty-five,  either 
immediately,  or  within  certain  periods.  The  second,  requiring  the  assistant  to 
keep  a  record  of  aU  slaves  owned  by  his  members  5  their  names  and  ages  ;  and 
the  date  of  any  instrument  executed  for  their  manumission,  which  list  was  to  be 
handed  down  to  his  successor.  The  third,  giving  permission  to  all  those  who 
would  not  comply  with  these  new  terms  of  communion  to  withdraw,  and  provid- 
ing that  non-compliance  should  be  followed  with  expulsion.  The  fourth,  excluding 
from  the  supper  of  the  Lord  all  who  thus  withdrew.  The  fifth,  requiring  all  who 
held  slaves,  to  comply  with  these  rules  before  partaking  of  the  communion.  In  a 
note,  those  members  were  exempted  from  the  operation  of  these  rules,  who  might 
be  living  in  States  where  the  laws  would  not  admit  of  emancipation.  In  the  same 
note,  the  brethren  in  Virginia,  were  allowed  two  years  for  consideration  after  the 
gi\ing  of  the  notice. 

It  was  agreed,  also,  that  all  who  bought,  sold,  or  gave  away  slaves,  unless  it 
was  for  the  purpose  of  freeing  them,  should  be  expelled. 

1785.  Concluded  that  the  rule  on  slavery  would  do  harm,  and  its  execution  sus- 
pended "  for  the  present." 

1789.  The  following  appears  in  the  general  rules  :  "  Tlie  buying  or  selling  the 
bodies  and  souls  of  men,  women,  and  children,  with  an  intention  to  enslave  them." 

1792.  This  year  the  words  ''  bodies  and  souls"  omitted. 

1796.  The  Conference  declared  itself,  more  than  ever,  convinced  of  the  evil  of 
slaver)',  and  recommended  the  Conferences,  and  those  having  charge  of  districts 
and  circuits,  to  be  exceedingly  cautious  in  admitting  persons  to  official  stations  in 
the  Church  ;  and  to  require  security  of  them  for  the  emancipation  of  their  slaves. 

It  was  agreed  that  no  slaveholder  should  be  admitted  into  the  Church,  until  the 
preacher  had  spoken  freely  and  faithfully  with  him  on  the  subject  of  slavery; 
also,  that  every  member  selling  a  slave  should  be  excluded  ;  also,  that  the  Quar- 
terly Meeting  should  determine,  in  case  a  member  bought  a  slave,  the  number  of 
years  required  for  said  slave  to  work  out  the  price  of  his  purchase  ;  also,  that  upon 
such  determination,  the  purchaser  should  be  required  to  execute  an  instrument  for 
his  manumission  at  the  expiration  of  such  term  ;  also,  that  in  case  of  refusal,  tho 
member  should  be  excluded.  It  was  provided  that  in  the  case  of  a  female  slave, 
the  instrument  should  secure  not  only  her  emancipation,  but  the  freedom  of  all 
her  male  children  at  the  age  of  twent}--five,  and  the  female  at  the  age  of  twenty- 
one,  if  the  member  did  not  see  fit  to  fix  the  date  of  their  manumission  earlier. 

1800.  The  Conference  agreed  that  any  traveling  preacher  who  became  an 


200  PART  II. — ^DISCIPLINE  AND  INSTITUTIONS. 


owner  of  slaves,  and  failed  to  emancipate  them,  should  forfeit  his  ministerial  standing. 
Also,  that  the  Annual  Conferences  urge,  by  petition  and  otherwise,  the  various 
State  legislatures  to  enact  laws  for  the  gi-adual  extinction  of  slavery. 

1804.  The  following  exceptions  made  to  the  rule  requiring  emancipation  ;  when 
the  slave  requested  that  he  mighty  or  mercy  and  humanity  required  that  he  should 
not  be  manumitted.  Such  cases,  however,  were  to  be  submitted  to  the  judgment 
of  a  committee  of  male  members  appointed  by  the  preacher. 

The  members  in  North  Carolina,  South  Carolina,  Georgia,  and  Tennessee,  ex- 
empted from  the  operation  of  the  rules  respecting  slavery. 

The  preachers  instructed  to  admonish  all  slaves  to  render  due  respect  and  obe- 
dience to  their  masters. 

1808.  The  whole  subject  referred  by  the  General  Conference  to  the  Annual 
Conferences,  who  were  to  form  their  own  regulations  relative  to  buying  and  seUing 
slaves. 

1812.  Slaveholders  made  ineligible  to  the  office  of  elder. 

1816.  Also,  to  the  office  of  deacon,  or  any  official  station  in  the  Church. 

1820.  The  authority  of  Annual  Conferences  to  make  their  own  regulations 
about  buying  and  selling  slaves  recinded. 

1824.  Preachers  instructed  to  prudently  enforce  upon  their  members  the  ne- 
cessity of  teaching  their  slaves  to  read  the  word  of  God  5  and  of  allowing  them  time 
to  attend  public  worship. 

1840.  The  General  Conference  this  year,  passed  a  resolution  declaring  that  the 
simple  holding  of  slave  property  in  States  where  the  laws  did  not  allow  of  eman- 
cipation, constituted  no  barrier  to  the  election  or  ordination  of  ministers  of  any 
grade. 

1848.  Tlie  resolution  referred  to  above  was  recinded. 


RULE    RESPECTING    INTOXICATING    LIQUORS. 

1743.  Mr.  "Wesley's  original  rule:  "  Drimkenness,  buying,  or  selling  spirituous 
liquors,  or  drinking  them,  unless  in  eases  of  extreme  necessit3^" 

1780.  The  preachers  agreed  to  disown  those  who  would  not  renounce  the 
practice  of  distilling  grain  into  liquor. 

1783.  Agreed  that  none  should  be  permitted  to  make  spirituous  liquors,  sell,  or 
drink  them  in  drams. 

1784.  The  preachers  enjoined  not  to  touch  drams,  or  spirituous  liquors,  unless 
it  should  be  medicinally,  and  to  enforce  vigorously  the  rule  on  the  subject. 

1789.  The  words  "  unless  in  cases  of  extreme  necessity,"  struck  out  of  the 
rule. 

In  1790  they  were  restored,  and  "  buying  and  selling"  omitted  instead. 

1791.  Band  members  required  not  to  taste  spirituous  liquors,  or  drams,  of  any 
kind,  unless  prescribed  by  a  ph5'^sician. 

1796.  The  section,  "of  the  sale  and  use  of  spirituous  liquors,"  introduced  into 
the  discipline.  In  this  section,  it  was  provided  that,  "if  any  member  of  our  so- 
ciety retail  or  give  spirituous  liquors,  and  any  thing  disorderly  be  transacted  under 
his  roof  on  this  account,  the  preacher  who  has  the  oversight  of  the  circuit,  shall 
proceed  against  him  as  in  the  ease  of  other  immoralities ;  and  the  person  accused 
shall  be  cleared,  censured,  suspended,  or  excluded,  according  to  his  conduct,  as  on 
other  charges  of  immorality." 

1820.  The  following  was  added  to  the  discipline  on  this  subject :  "  No  preacher

standing."

210  PAET  II. — DISCIPLINE  AND  INSTITUTIONS. 


METHODIST  GEKEEAL  BIBLICAL  INSTITUTE,. CONCOED,  K  H. 

As  early  as  the  year  1838,  a  call  was  made  on  the  friends  of  ministerial  educa- 
tion in  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  to  meet  at  Boston,  in  convention,  to  con- 
sider the  subject  of  establishing  an  institution  for  this  purpose.  A  theological 
institution  was  resolved  upon,  and  its  location  for  the  time  being  was  fixed  at 
Newburg,  Vt. 

The  first  professors  chosen,  were  Rev.  O.  C.  Baker,  A.  M,  and  Rev.  "Wm.  M. 
"Willett,  A.  M.,  who  entered  upon  their  duties  in  1843.  In  the  spring  of  1845, 
Rev.  John  Dempster  was  called  to  instruct  in  theology.  In  1846,  he  was  made 
agent  to  secure  an  endowment.  Inasmuch  as  the  Newburg  charter  did  not  admit 
the  trustees  of  the  Conferences  to  act,  it  was  resolved  to  remove  the  institution  to 
Concord,  N.  H.,  where  an  excellent  building  was  offered  for  its  accommodation. 

Accordingly,  in  April,  1847,  the  institution  was  reorganized  and  recommenced 
at  Concord,  under  the  title  of  the  "  Methodist  General  Biblical  Institufe.^^ 

Rev.  John  Dempster,  D.  D.,  Rev.  Osmer  C,  Baker,  A.  M.,  and  Rev.  Charles 
C  Adams,  A.  M.,  were  chosen  professors.  Prof.  Adams  resigned  his  office  in 
the  latter  part  of  1848,  and  Rev.  Stephen  M.  Vail,  A.  M.,  was  chosen  in  his  place. 

The  school  was  reopened  with  7  students ;  and  before  the  end  of  the  year,  the 
number  increased  to  30  :  the  second  year  to  40  ;  the  third  year  to  48  ;  the  fourth 
year  to  50  ;  and  at  the  present  time,  April,  1852,  the  whole  number  is  58. 

The  endowment  and  real  eastate  of  the  institution,  is  now  estimated  at  $40,000. 
The  buildings  will  accommodate  about  50  students,  afibrding,  also,  three  large 
lecture  rooms,  a  chapel,  and  the  rooms  needful  for  the  boarding  association.  The 
school  is  patronized  by  eight  Annual  Conferences,  viz. :  Maine,  East  Maine,  New 
Hampshire,  Vermont,  New  England,  Providence,  Troy,  and  Black  River  Confer- 
ences. These  Conferences  have  an  equal  voice  in  the  management  of  the  insti- 
tution through  five  trustees  appointed  from  their  respective  bounds.  The  following 
is  the  rule  for  admission  : — ■ 

"  Applicants  for  admission  to  the  seminary,  who  belong  to  the  Methodist  Epis-

METHODIST   BOOK    CONCERN. 

PRESENT  LOCATION,  200  MULBERRY  STREET,  NEW  YORK. 

Agents. — Thomas  Carlton  and  Zebulon  Phillips. 

This  now  gigantic  establishment  was,  in  its  commencement,  exceedingly  small. 
Its  history  begins  in  1789,  with  the  appointment  of  John  Dickens  as  book  steward. 
He  was  the  first  agent  and  editor.  The  business  was  carried  on  in  Philadelphia, 
where  Bro.  Dickens  was  then  stationed.  The  first  book  published  was  Mr.  Wes- 
ley's edition  of"  Thomas  a  Kempis.''  Its  capital  was  $600,  loaned  by  the  agent. 
In  1797  a  book  committee  was  appointed,  to  whom  were  submitted  all  works  in- 
tended for  publication.  In  1798  John  Dickens  died.  In  1799  he  was  succeeded 
by  Ezekiel  Cooper.  In  1808,  the  end  of  Bro.  Cooper's  term,  the  capital  stock 
had  increased  to  about  .$45,000.  In  1808,  the  General  Conference  appointed  John 
Wilson,  principal,  and  Daniel  Hitt,  assistant  editor.  After  the  death  of  John 
Wilson,  which  occurred  in  1810,  Daniel  Hitt  carried  on  the  business  alone  until 
1812,  when  Tliomas  Ware  was  made  assistant  editor,  and  steward. 

In  1816  Joshua  Soule  and  Thomas  Mason  were  made  agents.  In  1820  Xathan 
Bangs  was  elected  agent,  and  Thomas  Mason  re-elected  assistant  agent.  In  1822 
the  basement  of  the  Wesleyan  Seminary,  Crosby  street,  was  fitted  up  as  a  bindeiy. 
The  General  Conference  of  1824,  elected  John  Emory  as  assistant  book  agent,  in 
the  place  of  Thomas  Mason.  This  year  the  Wesleyan  Seminary  was  bought  and 
fitted  up  as  a  printing-office.  On  the  9th  of  September,  1826,  the  first  number  of 
the  "  Christian  Advocate"  was  issued,  under  the  editorial  direction  of  the  senior 
agent  and  Mr.  Badger.  In  1820  the  General  Conference  authorized  the  establish- 
ment of  a  branch  concern  at  Cincinnati,  of  which  INIartin  Ruter  was  appointed 
agent.  At  the  General  Conference  of  1828,  John  Emory  and  Beverley  Waugh 
were  appointed  agents.  Its  premises  in  Crosby  street  being  too  confined  for  the 
increasing  business  of  the  concern,  the  five  lots  on  which  the  "Book  Concern" 
now  stands  were  purchased.  As  Di-.  Emory  was  made  bishop  in  1832,  Beverley 
Waugh  was  appointed  the  principal  agent,  and  T.  INlason  assistant.  In  1833,  the 
new  buildings  in  INIulberry  street  were  finished,  and  the  entire  establishment  re^ 
moved  there.  A  very  little  time  after,  however,  the  who'e  was  consumed  by  fire. 
In  a  few  hours  the  Church  lost  not  less  than  $250,000.  ^'his  disastrous  event  oc- 
curred in  February,  1836.  To  repair  this  loss,  $88,346  ^  was  contributed  by 
the  Church  at  lai'ge,  and  $25,000  realized  from  insurances. 

In  1836  Beverley  Waugh  was  elected  bishop,  and  Thomas  Mason  appointed  in 
his  place,  with  George  Lane  for  an  assistant.  This  year  the  ^  '>neral  Conference 
approved  a  plan  for  the  new  buildings,  which  were  soon-  after\  wd  finished.  In 
1840,  C.  B.  Tippett  was  elected  assistant  book  agent ;  and  in  1844,  his  terrft  having 
expired,  L.  Scott  was  appointed  in  his  place. 

The  magnitude  and  importance  of  this  great  institution  may  be  ii  ferred  from 
the  following  tables,  which  we  have  prepared  with  great  care  from  ite  books  of 
the  Concern.

CEXTEXAUT  FUND. 

During  the  centenary  year  of  IVIethodism,  collections  for  various  benevolent  pur- 
poses were  taken  to  a  very  large  amount,  under  the  direction  of  the  Annual  Con- 
ferences, and  subject  to  their  control.  The  sums  collected  were  variously  applied. 
In  some  of  the  Conferences  a  fund  was  formed,  the  proceeds  of  which  were  to  be 
distributed  among  a  specified  class  of  the  claimants. 


PREACHEE'S  AID  SOCIETIES 


Have  been  formed  in  many  of  the  Annual  Conferences,  subject  to  such  regula- 
tions as  they  respectively  choose  to  adopt.  The  following  articles  from  the  con- 
stitution of  the  one  existing  in  the  Baltimore  Conference,  will  sufficiently  indicate 
their  design. 

ARTTCLE    II, 

Any  person  may  become  a  member  of  this  society,  by  the  payment  of  two  dol- 
lars or  upward,  and  signing  the  constitution,  and  while  they  continue  members

annual  meeting  in  each  and  every  year.  Any  person  contributing  twenty  dollars 
shall  be  considered  a  member  for  life. 

ARTICLE    VII. 

The  funds  of  this  society,  after  deducting  incidental  expenses,  shall  be  appro- 
priated as  follows,  to  wit : — All  moneys  which  may  arise  from  life  subscriptions, 
donations  of  five  dollars  and  upward,  and  legacies,  together  with  any  surplus 
which  may  remain  from  the  annual  collections,  after  the  appropriations  hereinafter 
provided  for,  have  been  made  by  the  board,  shall  be  invested  in  such  manner  as 
the  board  may  direct — and  the  interest  thereon  arising,  be  available  to  the  com- 
mon objects  of  the  society.  Provided,  however,  that  nothing  herein  contained 
shall  be  construed,  or  so  understood,  as  to  authorize  the  investment  of  any  dona- 
tion made,  or  legacy  given  to  the  institution  in  any  other  funds  or  mode  than  that 
which  may  be  prescribed,  or  directed  by  the  donor  or  devisor. 

ARTICLE  vin. 

No  person  shall  be  relieved  from  the  funds  of  this  society  but  itinerant  ministers 
of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Churcli,  their  wives,  widows,  or  children.     And  no 


PART   II. — DISCIPLINE   AND   INSTITUTIONS.  225 


such  minister,  his  wife,  widow,  or  child  shall  be  so  relieved,  unless  he  shall  have 
been  a  member  of  the  traveling  connection  for  twelve  years  ;  and  shall  have  been 
a  member  of  the  Baltimore  Annual  Conference,  the  seven  years  last  preceding  his 
application,  or  which  may  have  preceded  his  death,  unless  by  an  unanimous  vote 
of  the  board  ;  provided,  always,  nevertheless,  that  any  itinerant  minister  of  the 
Baltimore  Annual  Conference  who  may  hereafter  be  transferred,  according  to  the 
rules  and  discipline  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Conference,  in  the  United  States, 
to  any  Conference  or  Conferences,  and  who  may  have  been  a  member  of  the 
traveling  connection  for  twelve  years,  and  continuing  therein — shall  be  entitled,  as 
also  shall  his  wife,  widow,  child,  or  children,  be  entitled  to  the  same  relief,  as  if 
such  minister  had  continued  to  be  a  member  of  the  Baltimore  Annual  Conference.

an  aggregate  fund  of  $48,069  93.  It  appropriated  during  the  last  year  to  bene- 
ficiaries $1,750,  and  to  educational  purposes  $910.     Total,  $2,G60.

PART  III. 


METHODIST  EPISCOPAL  CHURCH,  SOUTH. 


The  origin  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South,  is  thus  stated  in  the  edition 
of  the  Discipline,  published  by  John  Early,  at  Richmond,  Va.,  1850  : — 

In  the  judgment  of  the  delegates  of  the  several  Annual  Conferences  in  the 
slave-holding  States,  the  continued  agitation  of  the  subject  of  slavery  and  abolition 
m  a  portion  of  the  Church,  the  frequent  action  on  that  subject  in  the  General  Con- 
ference, and  especially  the  proceedings  of  the  General  Conference  of  the  Methodist 
Episcopal  Church  of  1844,  in  the  case  of  the  Rev.  James  O.  Andrew,  D.  D.,  one  of 
the  bishops,  who  had  become  connected  with  slavery  by  marriage,  produced  a  state  of 
things  in  the  south,  which  rendered  a  continuance  of  the  jurisdiction  of  that  General 
Conference  over  the  Conferences  aforesaid,  inconsistent  with  the  success  of  the  min- 
istry in  their  proper  calling.  This  conviction  they  declared  in  solemn  form  to  the 
General  Conference,  accompanied  with  a  protest  against  the  action  referred  to, 
assured  that  public  opinion  in  the  slave-holding  States  would  demand,  and  that  a 
due  regard  to  the  vital  interests  of  Christ's  kingdom  would  justify,  a  separate  and  in- 
independent  organization.  Tlie  developments  of  a  few  months  vindicated  their  antici- 
pations. The  Church  in  the  south  and  south-west,  in  her  primary  assemblies,  her 
Quarterly  and  Annual  Conferences,  with  a  unanimity  unparalleled  in  ecclesiastical 
history,  approved  the  course  of  their  delegates,  and  declared  her  conviction  that  a 
separate  jurisdiction  was  necessary  to  her  existence  and  prosperity.  The  General 
Conference  of  1844,  having  adopted  a  "Plan  of  Separation,"  provided  for  the 
erection  of  the  Annual  Conferences  in  the  slave-holding  States  into  a  separate 
ecclesiastical  connection,  under  the  jurisdiction  of  a  Southern  General  Conference; 
the  delegates  of  the  aforementioned  Conferences,  in  a  published  address,  recom- 
mended that  a  convention  of  delegates  from  the  said  Conferences,  duly  instructed 
as  to  the  wishes  of  the  ministry  and  lait)',  should  assemble  at  Louisville,  Ky.,  on 
the  1st  day  of  May,  1845. 

The  convention  met,  delegates  having  been  formally  appointed  in  pursuance  of 
this  recommendation,  and  after  a  full  and  minute  representation  of  all  the  facts  in 
the  premises,  acting  under  the  provisional  "  Plan  of  Separation,"  declared,  by 
solemn  resolution,  the  jurisdiction  hitherto  exercised  by  the  General  Conference 
of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  over  the  Conferences  in  the  slave-holding 
States  entirely  dissolved,  and  erected  the  said  Annual  Conferences  into  a  separate 
ecclesiastical  connection,  under  the  style  and  title  of  "  The  INIethodist  Episcopal 
Church,  South,"  the  first  General  Conference  of  which  was  held  in  the  town  of 
Petersburg,  Virginia,  on  the  first  day  of  May,  1846. 

The  doctrines  and  discipline  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South,  are 
precisely  similar  to  those  of  the  larger  body  from  which  they  have  separated. 

They  retain  in  their  discipline  the  section  entitled  "  Of  Slavery,"  but  have  ap- 
pended to  it  the  following  note  : — 

"  N.  B.  This  section  was  inserted  by  a  majority  of  votes  when  the  Methodist 
Episcopal  Church  embraced  the  whole  country  ;  and,  as  the  Methodist  Episcopal 
Church,  South,  still  embraces  a  wide  extent  of  country,  with  various  views  and 
conflicting  interests,  it  is  not  removed,  though  it  has  long  since  become  inoperative, 
and  ceased,  by  common  consent,  to  set  forth  a  practical  rule  or  principle."

They  have  a  strong  hold  in  Toronto,  Hamilton,  and  London.     Rev.  Mr.  M. 


238  PART  III. — UNIVERSAL  METHODISM.

Hamilton,  and  Rev.  Mr.  Robinson  in  Toronto.  Rev.  Mr.  R.  is  also  general  super- 
intendent of  missions. 

Within  a  few  years  past  a  union  has  been  formed  between  them  and  the  Cana- 
dian Wesleyans,  so  that  the  latter  body  no  longer  exists  as  a  distinct  denomination. 
They  have  lay  delegation.  Numbers — circuits  and  stations,  35  ;  circuit  preachers, 
50  5  members,  3,922.

WESLEYAN  METHODIST  ASSOCIATION,  ENGLAND. 

Formed  in  1835,  by  the  secession  headed  by  Dr.  Warren,  and  the  members  left 
of  the  party  who  seceded  principally  at  Leeds  in  1829.  At  the  second  assembly 
of  this  body,  their  numbers  were  stated  to  amount  together  to  20,275.  In  1851

preachers  and  missionaries  5  and  the  members  in  Great  Britain  and  Ireland  were 
21,484,  being  a  decrease  of  694.  The  next  assembly  will  be  held  at  Manchester,

WESLEYAN  METHODIST  CONNECTION,  UNITED  STATES. 

This  denomination  originated  in  the  withdrawal  of  a  small  number  of  ministers 
and  laymen  from  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  of  the  United  States.  Their 
objections  to  that  communion  were,  as  they  stated — that  the  Methodist  Episcopal 
Church  was  a  slave-holding  and  slavery  defending  Church. 

A  convention  of  ministers  and  laymen  met  in  Utica,  N.  Y.,  May  31,  1843.  At 
this  convention  the  Wesleyan  Connection  was  organized.  The  articles  of  faith 
agreed  upon  were  the  same  as  those  that  distinguish  the  Methodists  in  Europe  and 
America.  An  itinerant  system  was  adopted  in  respect  to  the  ministry.  But  the 
classification  of  the  Christian  ministry,  as  bishops,  elders,  and  deacons,  was  re- 
jected. 

STATISTICS. 

Pastors,  400;  members,  21,000;  comprised  in  ten  yearly  Conferences. 
There  are  also  300  licentiates  or  unstationed  preachers.  They  have  a  book  con- 
cern and  periodical  publication,  whose  gross  value  is  $25,000,  or  estimated  above 
its  liabilities  to  stockholders  and  others,  at  the  nett  sum  of  $8,000.  Their  weekly 
paper,  the  "  True  Wesleyan,"  has  4,500  subscribers,  and  the  semi-monthly  paper, 
the  "  Juvenile  Wesleyan,"  has  3,500  subscribers. 


METHODIST  PEOTESTANT  CHURCH,  UNITED  STATES. 

This  Church  was  organized  in  the  city  of  Baltimore,  on  the  2d  day  of  Novem- 
ber, 1830. 

The  doctrines  are  the  same  as  those  held  by  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church. 


PART  III. — UNIVERSAL  METHODISM.  239 


The  constitution  and  discipline  is  based  upon  an  equal  representation  of  ministers 
and  laymen  in  the  legislative  and  judicial  departments  of  the  Church.  There  are, 
in  the  United  States,  31  Annual  Conferences,  divided  into  72  stations,  368  circuits, 
and  90  home  missions.  There  are  807  itinerant  ministers  and  preachers,  and  742 
unstationed  ministers  and  preachers,  with  a  membership  of  65,008.  There  are 
841  meeting-houses  of  worship,  with  75  parsonages,  all  valued  at  $638,620.  The 
Church  has  two  weekly  papers  exclusively  devoted  to  its  interests,  (the  "  Metho- 
dist Protestant,"  printed  at  Baltimore,  INId.,  and  edited  by  E.  Y.  Reese,  and  the 
"  Western  Recorder,"  published  at  Putnam,  Muskingum  county,  Ohio,  by  A.  H. 
Bassett,)  and  two  others  partly  so.  There  is  a  book  concern  in  operation,  the 
amount  of  the  capital  of  which  we  are  not  at  present  informed. 

There  is,  in  connection  with  the  Church,  a  foreign  missionary  society,  which 
supports  one  missionary  in  Oregon,  and  will,  as  soon  as  a  suitable  man  can  be  ob- 
tained, establish  one  in  China.  There  is  under  the  patronage  of  the  General  Con- 
ference, one  college  situated  at  Union  Town,  Pa.,  in  successful  operation  ;  another 
under  the  patronage  of  the  Ohio  Annual  Conference,  at  Cambridge,  Ohio.  Two 
Beminaries  5  one  at  Whitstown,  Vt.,  and  one  at  Moscow,  Ohio. 


PRIMITIYE  METHODIST  CHURCH,  UNITED  STATES. 

Traveling  preachers,  12;  local  preachers,  80  5  members,  including  those  on 
probation,  1,100;  churches  or  chapels,  14;  other  preaching  places,  60. 

There  are  also  some  700  or  800  children  taught  in  the  sabbath  schools,  and 
about  200  teachers. 


PRIMITIVE  METHODIST  CHURCH,  CANADA. 

There  were  in  1850,  in  the  neighborhood  of  Toronto,  traveling  preachers,  14  ; 
local  preachers,  100;  connectional  chapels,  31  ;  Sunday  schools,  19;  teachers, 
200;  scholars,  1,227;  members  in  society,  1,630.  The  increase  for  the  past

REFORMED  METHODIST  CHURCH. 

The  secession  in  which  this  body  originated,  took  place  in  the  towns  of  Reads- 
borough  and  Whitingham,  Vt.,  Jan.  1814.  Their  form  of  church  government  is 
congregational,  and  their  doctrine  those  of  the  Methodist  churches  generally. 

In  1850  there  were  50  ministers,  and  25  licensed  preachers  in  the  connection. 
The  number  of  members  has  never  been  published. 

At  present  they  do  not  probably  number  more  than  two-thirds  as  many  as 
formerly. 


APRICAN  METHODIST  EPISCOPAL  (ZION)  CHURCH. 

This  society  formerly  seperated  from  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  in  the 
year  1820. 

James  Varrick  and  Abraham  Thompson  were  elected  elders.  They  were  sub- 
sequently ordained  by  William  M.  Stillwell  and  two  other  presbyters,  who  had 
seceded  from  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church.  In  June,  1821,  the  first  Con- 
ference was  held.  At  the  eighth  yearly  Conference  which  was  held  at  New  York, 
May  15th,  1828,  Christopher  Rush  was  elected  Superintendent  of  the  Connection.

UNITED  BRETHREN  IN  CHRIST,  OR  GERIIAN  ITETHODISTS. 

This  denomination  is  distinguished  from  the  Old  Moravian  Church,  by  the 
phrase  "  in  Christ."  Its  founder  was  William  Otterbm-n,  (the  same  who  assisted 
in  the  ordination  of  Bishop  Asbury,)  a  distinguished  German  divine,  Theix'  first 
Conference  was  held  at  Baltimore  in  1789. 

In  doctrine  and  discipline  they  resemble  the  Methodist  Church,

ALBRIGHTS,  OR  ETANGELICAL  ASSOCIATION. 

(GERMAN    METHODISTS.) 

This  denomination  took  its  rise  about  the  year  1800.  It  took  its  name  from 
Jacob  Albright,  its  founder.  Their  doctrines  and  ecclesiastical  regulations 
differ  but  little  from  those  of  the  larger  bodies  of  Methodists.  They  number 
about  20,000  members.

STILLWELLITES. 

(congregational   METHODISTS.) 

This  society  was  first  composed  of  seceders  from  the  Methodist  Episcopal 
Church.  In  1820,  Rev.  Wm.  Stillwell,  with  some  three  hundred  members, 
thinking  themselves  aggrieved  by  certain  Conference  resolutions,  formally  with- 
drew and  organized  a  Church.  Their  numbers,  though  slightly  increased  for  a 
time,  began  on  the  formation  of  the  Protestant  Methodist  Church,  rapidly  to  de- 
cline, a  large  proportion  of  the  society  uniting  with  that  body.  Mr.  Stillwell  died 
in  1851,  and  the  society  is  now  very  much  diminished.  They  do  not  number 
over  200.

There  are  6  archbishops,  26  bishops,  1,385  priests,  1,411  churches,  and  34 
dioceses  and  2  apostolic  vicariates.  One  archbishop  and  27  priests  have  died,  and 
one  bishop  has  been  translated  to  another  See  ;  whence  it  appears  that  during  the 
past  year  there  was  an  accession  of  1  archbishop,  1  bishop,  and  114  priests.  The 
figures  in  the  above  table,  under  the  head  of  Catholic  population,  were  obtained 
from  official,  and  consequently  the  most  reliable  sources.  If  we  suppose  the 
Catholic  population  in  the  diocese  of  St.  Louis  to  be  90,000,  Boston  250,000,  Gal- 
veston 35,000,  St.  Paul's  2,500,  Indian  Territory  2,500,  the  total  number  of 
Catholics  in  the  United  States  will  be  1,980,000. 


ASSOCIATION  OF  THE  PEOPAGATION  OF  THE  FAITH. 

The  institution  for  the  Propagation  of  the  Faith,  has  for  its  object  to  assist,  by 
prayers  and  alms,  the  Catholic  missionaries  who  are  charged  to  preach  the  gospel 
to  foreign  nations.  The  prayers  are  a  Pater  and  Ave  every  day.  The  subscrip- 
tion is  a  half-penny,  or  nearly  a  cent  a  week.  One  member  receives  the  subscrip- 
tions of  ten  members,  the  amount  of  which  he  hands  over  to  another  who  receives 
ten  such  collections,  or  one  hundred  subscriptions.  Two  committees,  one  in  Paris 
and  the  other  at  Lyons,  administer  the  affairs  of  the  institution,  and  distribute  the 
funds.  An  account  of  the  receipts  and  disbursements  is  published  annually  in  the 
Annals  of  the  Propagation  of  the  Faith.  This  publication  appears  every  two 
months,  containing  a  variety  of  missionary  intelligence,  especially  the  letters  of 
missionaries  from  different  parta  of  the  world.  About  180,000  copies  of  this  work 
are  struck  off;  100,000  in  French,  18,200  in  German,  20,000  in  English,  1,100 
in  Spanish,  4,500  in  Flemish,  30,000  in  Italian,  2,000  in  Dutch,  2,500  in  Portu- 
guese, 500  in  Polish.  Tlie  Sovereign  Pontiffs  have  conferred  upon  the  institution 
many  spiritual  favors.

Randall,  in  New  Durham.  They  reject  the  doctrines  of  Calvin,  and  believe  in  a 
general  rather  than  a  partial  atonement.  The  government  of  the  Church  is  con- 
gregational. 

The  fourteenth  General  Conference  of  this  body  was  held  at  Providence,  R.  L,

GAMTBELLITES,  OR  DISCIPLES  OF  CHRIST 

The  formation  of  this  society  dates  from  September,  1810.  It  was  organized  at 
Brush  Run,  Washington  Co.,  Pa.,  by  T.  Campl)ell,  a  secessionist  from  the  Irish 
Presbyterian  Church,  and  his  son,  Alexander  Campbell,  avowedly  for  the  purpose 
of  effecting  a  union  of  the  pious  of  all  parties.  They  regard  immersion  as  a  re- 
mitting ordinance  through  which  the  penitent  obtains  an  assurance  of  pardon. 
They  practice  open  and  weekly  communion.  They  set  apart  the  first  day  of  the 
week  for  worship,  but  do  not  regard  it  as  a  Sabbath.  In  interpreting  the  Scrip- 
tures they  confine  themselves  to  its  literal  import,  and  profess  to  hold  all  the  doc- 
trines of  the  reformation.

Churches,  1,700;  ministers,  1,100;  members,  130,000. 


SEYENTH-DAY  BAPTISTS. 


The  peculiar  views  of  this  denomination  were  introduced  into  the  United  States 
by  Mr.  Stephen  Mumford,  who  came  from  England  in  1665,  and  settled  in  New-

port,  Rhode  Island.  The  first  Church  was  formed  in  1681.  They  differ  from 
other  Baptists  in  refusing  to  admit  that  the  Sabbath  was  changed  by  divine  ap- 
pointment from  the  seventh  day  to  the  first.  The  congregational  form  of  Church 
government  has  been  adopted  by  the  body. 

STATISTICS. 

There  are  67  Seventh-day  Baptist  Churches  in  the  United  States,  as  follows : 
Rhode  Island,  8  5  Connecticut,  2  ;  New  York,  36  ;  Pennsylvania,  4 ;  Virginia,  4 ; 
Ohio,  5 ;  Wisconsin,  5  •,  Illinois,  1  ;  Indiana,  1 5  Iowa,  1  ;  ministers,  61 ;  hcen- 
tiates,  16.     The  number  of  communicants  is  6,351. 

The  following  benevolent  institutions  are  under  the  patronage  of  the  denomina- 
tion :  Seventh-day  Baptist  Missionary  Society,  American  Sabbath  Tract  Society, 
and  Seventh-day  Baptist  Publishing  Society. 

A  yearly  meeting  of  the  Seventh-day  Baptists  in  America  was  established  at  a 
very  early  period,  and  from  it  originated  the  Seventh-day  Baptist  General  Confer- 
ence— a  body  which  held  its  meetings  annuaPy  from  1805  to  1846,  when  it  was 
agreed  that  the  meetings  should  henceforth  be  held  triennially.  The  next  meeting 
of  the  Conference  is  to  be  held  at  Plainfield,  N.  J.,  commencing  September  9, 
1852. 

The  Seventh-day  Baptist  denomination  was  divided  into  associations  in  1835. 
There  are  now  six  associations,  each  holding  its  annual  meeting.  The  Eastern 
Association  embraces  the  churches  in  Rhode  Island,  Connecticut,  New  Jersey, 
and  that  part  of  New  York  lying  east  of  the  Hudson  river  ;  its  next  meeting  will 
be  held  at  Waterford,  Ct.,  on  the  20th  day  of  May,  1852.  The  Central  Associa- 
tion embraces  those  churches  in  New  York  lying  between  the  Hudson  river  and 
the  small  lakes  ;  its  next  meeting  will  be  held  at  Verona,  Oneida  Co.,  N.  Y.,  on 
the  8th  day  of  June,  1852.  The  Western  association  includes  the  churches  in 
Western  New  York  and  Pennsylvania  ;  its  next  meeting  will  be  held  at  Genesee, 
Alleghany  Co.,  N.Y.,  on  the  24th  day  of  June,  1852.  The  South- Western  as- 
sociation embraces  the  churches  in  Virginia,  and  meets  September  2d,  1852,  at  Lost 
Creek,  Harrison  Co.,  Va.  The  Ohio  association  includes  all  the  churches  in 
Ohio,  and  meets  at  Jackson,  Shelby  Co.,  O.,  October  7th,  1852.  The  North- West- 
ern Association  is  composed  of  the  churches  in  Illinois  and  Wisconsin,  and  meets 
at  Albion,  Dane  Co.,  Wisconsin,  September  29th,  1852. 

The  Seventh-day  Baptists  have  two  Literary  Institutions,  designed  to  furnish 
the  means  of  securing  a  thorough  education.  One  of  them,  called  the  DeRuyter 
Institute,  is  located  at  DeRuyter,  Madison  Co.,  N.  Y.,  and  was  founded  in  1837, 
at  an  expense  of  between  twenty  and  thirty  thousand  dollars.  The  other  is  located 
at  Alfred,  Alleghany  Co.,  N.  Y.,  and  called  the  Alfred  Academy  and  Teachers' 
Seminary.  They  have  also  several  smaller  academies,  one  of  which  is  located  at 
Shiloh,  Cumberland  Co.,  N.  J.,  and  another  at  IVIilton,  Rock  Co.,  Wisconsin. 


GERMAN  SEVENTH-DAT  BAPTISTS. 


This  Church  was  first  formed  by  Conrad  Beissel,  a  native  of  Germany,  who  in 
1 725  seceded  from  the  Dunkers,  and  retired  secretly  to  a  cell  on  the  banks  of  the 
Cocalico,  Pa.  On  being  discovered  by  his  followers,  they  settled  in  solitary  cot- 
tages around  his  cell,  and  adopted  his  views  of  the  Sabbath.  In  1732  they  aban- 
doned their  solitary  mode  of  hving  and  established  a  monastic  society,  and  assumed 
the  habit  of  the  Capuchins.  Their  first  buildings  were  called  Ephrata.  In  1777 
they  began  to  decline,  and  now  only  two  small  branch  societies  remain.  They 
number  400  naembers  and  have  4  ministers.

GERMAN  BAPTISTS,  OR  DUNKERS. 

This  denomination  was  formed  by  the  German  Baptists  who  emigrated  to  tliis 
country  between  the  years  1718  and  1730.  Though  commonly  called  Dunkers, 
the  name  assumed  by  themselves,  and  by  which  they  desire  to  be  known,  is 
"  Brethren."  They  hold  many  views  in  common  with  the  Quakers,  and  maintain 
in  their  teaching  the  doctrines  of  general  redemption.  As  they  keep  no  statistics, 
it  is  impossible  to  give  any  accurate  account  of  their  number.  They  do  not  proba- 
bly exceed  8,000.     They  have  250  ministers.

PRESBYTERIAi^  CHURCHES. 

PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH,  (old  school.) 

This  body  of  Christians  had  its  origin  with  those  churches  in  Germany,  Switzer- 
land, France,  and  Holland,  which  were  organized  at  the  reformation  on  the  plat- 
form of  the  purity  of  the  ministry.  The  doctrines  of  the  Church  are  strictly  Cal- 
vinistic.  In  the  government  of  the  Church  the  ministry  associate  with  themselves 
a  body  of  laymen  called  ruling  elders.  The  courts  of  the  Church  include  consis- 
tories, classes,  and  synodical  assemblies.  Tlie  first  presbytery  of  this  Church  was 
formed  in  Philadelphia  in  1706  5  the  first  synod  in  1717  ;  first  general  assembly  in 
1789.

ASSOCIATE  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH. 


A  branch  of  the  Church  of  Scotland,  holding  the  doctrines  of  the  '  cformation 
as  set  forth  in  the  standard  of  the  Westminster  Assembly.  The  first  Presbytery 
in  the  United  States  was  formed  by  Messrs.  Gellatly  and  Arnot,  in  November, 
1754,  under  the  name  of  the  Associate  Presbytery  of  Pennsylvania, 

This  society  is  confined  chiefly  to  the  Middle  and  Western  States.  Tliere  are 
a  few  small  congregations,  however,  in  the  State  of  Vermont  and  in  Canada. 

The  judicatories  of  this  Church  consist  of  a  Synod,  which  is  composed  of  all  the 
ministers  and  one  ruling  elder  from  each  congregation,  and  meets  annually  ;  and 
16  Presbyteries  which  meet  as  often  as  circumstances  require. 


STATISTICS.

The  theological  seminary  connected  with  this  Church  is  situated  at  Cannons- 
burg,  Pa.,  and  has  two  professorships — one  of  didactic  theology  and  the  other  of 
Church  history,  pastoral  theolog}- ,  and  biblical  literature.  There  is  but  one  term 
each  year — from  the  first  Monday  in  November  to  the  last  of  March.  Four  terms 
are  necessary  to  the  completion  of  a  course.  Tlie  text-book  in  didactic  theology 
is  "  JoHANNis  Markii  Christians  Theologize  Medulla." 


ASSOCIATE  REFORilED  PRESBYTERIAN  CHIIRCH. 

A  branch  of  the  Church  of  Scotland.  Introduced  into  the  United  States  by  the 
Burgher  congregation  which  emigrated  in  1764,  under  the  pastoral  charge  of  the 
Rev.  Mr.  Clark.  The  doctrines  of  the  Church  are  the  same  as  the  Associate 
Presbyterian  Church.     The  first  Synod  was  constituted  in  1782,  in  Philadelphia.

REFOR^IED  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH. 

This  branch  of  the  great  Presbyterian  body  traces  its  origin  to  the  reformed 
Church  of  Scotland,  which  grew  out  of  the  labors  of  John  Knox,  about  1560. 
Their  first  Church  organization  in  the  United  States  bears  date  from  1743.  The 
first  Presbytery  was  formed  in  1798.  The  first  Synod  in  1808.  The  doctrinal 
standards  of  the  Church  are  the  Westminster  Confession  of  Faith  and  Catechisms, 
and  her  Declaration  and  Testimony,  published  in  1843.

CUITBERLAND  PRESBYTERTAXS. 


This  denomination  appears  to  have  been  formed  by  the  Rev.  Messrs.  Finis  Ewing, 
Samuel  King,  and  Samuel  McAllen,in  February,  1810,  who  at  that  time  separated 
from  the  Presbyterian  Church.  The  ground  of  separation  seems  to  have  been  a 
difference  of  view  with  regard  to  the  doctrine  of  predestination,  and  also  with  regard 
to  the  licensing  and  ordaining  of  ministers.  The  lowest  judicature  of  the  Church 
is  a  congregational  session,  the  next  a  presbytery — then  a  synod,  and  then  a  gen- 
eral assembly,  which  is  the  highest.  The  first  session  of  the  General  Assembly  was 
held  at  Princeton,  Ky.,  May,  1829.

CONGREGATIOl^ALIST. 

The  organization  of  the  first  Congregational  Church  in  England,  is  usually 
ascribed  to  Robert  Browne,  in  1583.  John  Robinson,  however,  seems  to  have 
been  the  father  of  modern  Congregationalism.  He  was  born  in  the  year  1575. 
In  1592-3,  the  "  Exile  Act"  for  the  punishment  of  persons  refusing  to  attend 
Church  was  passed  by  the  British  Parliament.  In  1 592-4  the  seperatists  retired 
to  Holland,  where  in  1598  they  published  their  Confession  of  Faith.  James  insist- 
ing upon  conformity,  in  1608  Robinson  and  Brewster  escaped  to  Holland.  In  1 620 
Robinson  sailed  for  America,  where  he  arrived  on  the  25th  of  December.  The 
Congregational  Church  planted  by  the  Puritans  at  Plymouth,  was  the  first  Church 
organized  in  New  England.  In  1648,  the  Congreg  dional  Churches  adf)pted,as  a 
doctrinal  basis,  the  Westminster  Confession  of  Faith.  In  168  ,  a  Synod  convened 
at  Boston  approved  a  Confession  of  Faith  which  had  been  adopted  by  the  English 
Congregational  Churches  in  1658,  and  which  is  to  this  day  regarded  as  a  cor- 
rect exposition  of  Congregationalism.  In  1708  the  churches  of  Connecticut  adopted 
what  is  known  as  the  Saybrook  Platform.

GERMAN  REFORMED  CHURCH. 

(For  Dutch  Reformed  Church,  see  page  264.) 

This  Church  comprises  that  portion  of  the  family  of  reformed  churches  who 
speak  the  German  language,  and  their  descendants,  and  as  such  is  distinguished 
from  the  Dutch  Reformed,  &c.  The  founder  of  the  Church  was  Ulric  Zwingli, 
a  native  of  Switzerland,  who  was  born  in  1484.  Its  doctrinal  system  is  contained 
in  the  Heidelberg  Catechism.  The  government  of  the  Church  is  Presbyterian. 
Its  Church  courts  consist  of  consistories,  classes,  synods,  and  a  general  convention. 
The  Church  in  the  United  States  is  divided  into  two  friendly  bodies.

EVANGELICAL  LUTHERAN  CHUECH. 


This  Church  had  its  origin  with  the  Diet  of  Augsburg,  in  the  year  1555.  It 
was  established  in  America  by  the  Dutch  emigrants  who  settled  in  New  York, 
(then  New  Amsterdam,)  in  1621.  The  government  and  discipline  of  the  Church 
is  essentially  Presbyterian.     The  doctrinal  standard  is  the  Augsburg  Confession.

irORAVIANS,  OR  UNITED  BRETHREN'S  CHURCH. 

The  founders  of  this  Church  were  Boliemians  and  Moravians,  who,  being  per- 
secuted for  their  non-conformity,  founded  a  colony  on  the  estate  of  Count  Zinzen- 
dorf  in  Upper  Lusatia,  in  the  year  1 722.  In  consequence  of  the  success  of  their 
missions,  to  the  interests  of  which  they  are  specially  devoted,  they  have  succeeded 
in  establishing  congregations  and  communities  in  Germany,  England,  Holland, 
America,  &c.  The  government  of  the  Church  is  a  litnited  episcopacy.  Their 
principal  missions  are  to  the  negroes  in  the  West  India  Islands,  the  Esquimaux  in 
Greenland  and  Labrador,  the  Hottentots  and  CafFres  at  the  Cape  of  Good  Hope, 
and  to  the  Indians  of  North  America.

QUAKERS,  OR  FRIENDS. 

This  religious  society  arose  in  England  about  the  middle  of  the  seventeenth  cen- 
tury. George  Fox,  its  founder,  was  born  at  Drayton,  Leicestershire,  in  the  year 
1624.  About  the  year  1655,  several  of  this  denomination  emigrated  to  America, 
and  landed  at  Boston.  They  suffered  greatly  from  persecution  ;  various  punish- 
ments were  inflicted  upon  them  ;  and,  finally,  four  of  them  were  put  to  death  by 
the  gallows.  In  1682,  a  large  number  of  this  body,  under  the  patronage  of  Wra. 
Penn,  left  England  and  founded  the  flourishing  colony  of  Pennsylvania.

HICKSITES. 

This  body  seceded  from  the  Friends  in  the  year  1827,  in  consequence  of  the 
efforts  made  to  prevent  Elias  Hicks  from  promulgating  his  views  respecting  the 
miraculous  conception,  divinity,  and  atonement  of  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ.  These 
doctrines  he  denied,  as  he  also  did  the  authenticit}'  and  divine  authority  of  the 
Holy  Scriptures.     They  number  about  200  congregations,  and  2,000  members. 


SHAKEES. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  year  1780,  this  society  consisted  of  but  about  10  or  12 
persons,  who  all  came  from  England.  The  largest  body  at  present  is  at  New 
Lebanon,  situated  about  2 3  miles  south  of  Lebanon  Springs,  in  the  county  of 
Columbia,  State  of  New  York,  about  25  miles  south-east  from  Albany,  and  con- 
tains at  present  between  5  and  600  persons,  including  old  and  young,  male  and 
female.  There  is  also  one  at  Watervliet,  about  7  miles  north-west  from  the  city  of 
Albany,  in  the  same  State ;  .this  was  established  soon  after  the  Church  at  New 
Lebanon,  and  now  contains  upward  of  200  members.  One  at  Hancock,  in  the 
county  of  Berkshire,  and  State  of  Massachusetts  ;  this  is  situated  about  3  miles

Shirley,  county  of  Middlesex,  in  the  same  State,  about  7  miles  west  from  Harvard, 
which  contains  about  150  members.  One  at  Canterbury',  in  the  county  of  Rock- 
ingham, in  the  State  of  New  Hampshire,  about  12  miles  north  by  east  from  Con- 
cord, which  contains  upward  of  200  members.  One  at  Enfield,  county  of  Grafton, 
in  the  same  State,  about  12  miles  north-east  from  Dartmouth  College,  which  con- 
tains upward  of  200  members.  One  at  Alfred,  county  of  York,  about  30  miles 
south-westerly  from  Portland,  in  the  State  of  Maine,  which  contains  about  200 
members.  One  at  New  Gloucester,  county  of  Cumberland,  about  25  miles  north- 
west from  Portland,  same  State,  which  contains  about  150  members.  These  were 
all  the  societies  formed  prior  to  the  year  1805. 

There  are  at  present,  also,  two  societies  in  the  State  of  Ohio  ;  one  at  Union  Vil- 
lage, in  the  county  of  Warren,  about  4  miles  west  from  the  village  of  Lebanon, 
and  30  miles  north  by  east  from  Cincinnati.  This  is  the  oldest  and  largest  society 
in  the  Western  States,  and  contains  nearly  600  members.  The  other  is  at  Water- 
vliet, on  Beaver  Creek,  in  the  county  of  Montgomery,  about  22  miles  north  from 
Union  Village,  and  6  miles  south-east  from  Dayton,  which  contains  about  100

county,  about  7  miles  easterly  from  Ilarrodsburg,  and  21  south-easterly  from 
Lexington,  which  contains  about  4  and  500  members.  The  other  is  at  South 
Union  Jasper  Springs,  in  Logan  county,  about  15  miles  north-easterly  from  Rus- 
sellville,  and  contains  between  3  and  400  members.  The  fifth  and  last  is  at  West 
Union,  Knox  county,  in  the  State  of  Indiana  ;  it  is  situated  on  Busseran  Creek, 
near  its  confluence  with  the  Wabash,  about  16  miles  above  Vincennes,  and  con- 
tains upward  of  200  members. 

There  are  also  numbers  in  various  parts  of  the  United  States  who  have  em- 
braced the  faith  of  the  society,  but  whose  circumstances  have  not,  as  yet,  admitted 
of  their  being  gathered  into  a  regular  body. 

Tlie  numbers  of  believers  contained  in  all  the  societies,  both  in  the  Eastern  and 
W^estern  States,  exceeds  4,000.  Two-thirds,  at  least,  of  this  number  have  been 
added  since  the  commencement  of  the  present  century. 


DUTCH  EEFORIIED  CHURCH. 


This  is  the  oldest  Church  in  the  United  States  under  a  Presbyterian  form  of 
Church  government.  It  is  a  branch  of  the  National  Chm*ch  of  Holland.  Its 
first  ministers  were  brought  to  this  country  by  the  Dutch  West  India  company. 
Up  to  the  year  1737,  the  Church  was  under  the  control  of  the  synod  of  North 
Holland  ;  in  that  year,  however,  some  of  the  most  prominent  ministers  of  the 
Church  a  ecRtus,  and  thus  cut  themselves  loose  from  the  parent  classis.  This 
Church  has  adopted  in  its  creed  the  confession  of  faith,  revised  in  the  national 
synod  of  the  Council  of  Dort,  in  the  years  1818-19,  which  consists  of  thirty-seven 
articles.  These  articles  are  precisely  the  same  as  those  adopted  by  the  Protestant 
Episcopal  Church,  with  the  exception  of  the  one  which  relates  to  diocesan  bishops, 
which  they  reject,  believing  that  every  presbyter  is  a  bishop.  The  form  of  govern- 
ment is  congregational.  The  primary  court  of  the  Church  is  the  consistory,  which 
consists  of  bishops,  elders,  and  deacons.  The  next  court  is  the  classis,  which  is 
composed  of  a  minister  and  elder  from  each  Church.  The  next  is  the  particular 
synod,  which  consists  of  two  ministers  and  two  elders  irom  each  classis.  The 
highest  court,  and  from  which  there  is  no  appeal,  is  the  general  synod.  It  is  com- 
posed of  three  ministers  and  three  elders  from  each  classis  throughout  the  entire 
Church.

UNITAEIANS. 

This  body  dates  its  origin  in  New  England,  back  to  the  middle  of  the  last  cen- 
tury. The  society  worshiping  at  King's  Chape],  Boston,  was  the  first  to  exclude 
trinitarian  sentiments.  In  the  year  1815,  there  commenced  in  New  England 
what  has  been  called  the  unitarian  controversy.  In  this  controversy  Drs.  Chan- 
ningand  "Worcester  took  a  prominent  part,  and  it  finally  terminated  in  the  separa- 
tion of  the  congrogationalists  into  two  distinct  bodies,  the  Orthodox  and  Unitarian. 
The  first  Unitarian  Association  was  held  in  Boston,  1825.

CHEISTIANS,  (UNITARIAN  BAPTISTS.) 

This  denomination  originated  between  the  years  1793  and  1801,  in  secessions 
from  the  Methodist,  Baptist,  and  Presbyterian  Churches.  They  reject  the  doc- 
trine of  the  trinity,  and  refuse  all  creeds.  Their  views  of  baptism  are  in  accord- 
ance with  those  held  by  the  baptists  generally.  Each  Church  is  an  independent 
body,  governing  itself,  and  transacting  its  own  affairs. 

They  have  now  spread  into  all  the  States  and  into  Canada  ;  and  are  found  in 
England.  In  New  England  they  number  227  churches,  over  200  ministers,  and 
10,896  communicants.  And  in  the  United  States  and  Canada,  they  number  1,500 
churches,  over  1,500  ministers,  and  325,000  communicants.

.      SWEDENBOHGIANS,  OR  NEW  JERUSALE\r  CnrRCH. 

This  body  owes  its  origin  to  Emanuel  Swedenborg,  and  professes  to  have  re- 
ceived a  new  dispensation  of  doctrinal  truth.  It  first  assumed  to  be  a  Church  in 
England,  in  the  year  1783.  Its  doctrines  were  introduced  into  the  United  States 
by  a  Mr.  Glen,  in  the  year  1784.  The  clergy  are  divided  into  three  classes; 
ministers,  pastors,  and  ordaining  ministers.  They  use  a  liturgy  in  public  worship, 
and  profess  to  be  connected,  in  some  way,  with  the  Church  of  England.  They 
have  42  churches,  30  ministers,  and  about  3,000  members. 


JEWS. 

The  Jews  first  settled  in  this  country  about  the  year  1G60,  when  J^ew  Amster- 
dam was  under  the  Dutch  government.  They  were  mostly  Spaniards  and  Por- 
tuguese, who  fled  first  to  Holland,  then  to  America,  to  escape  from  the  bloody 
inquisition.  Tliey  are  now  found  in  all  the  States.  Each  congregation  is  inde- 
pendent of  any  other  ecclesiastical  authority.  It  elects  its  own  minister,  who  is 
inducted  into  his  office  without  any  formal  ordination,  and  retains  it  at  the  vnil  o^ 
the  majority. 

Synagogues,  about  20  ;  numbering  not  less  than  8,400  members. 


CHUECH  OF  GOD. 

This  society  originated  with  the  Rev.  John  Winebrenner,  of  ITarrisburg,  Pa., 
in  the  year  1820,  who  separated  himself  from  the  German  Reformed  Church,  on 
account  of  the  opposition  of  some  of  its  members  to  his  views  of  revivals.  The 
confession  of  faith  adopted  does  not  differ  from  that  of  evangelical  Christians  gen- 
erally, except  that  it  insists  upon  the  literal  washing  of  the  feet  of  the  saints  as  an 
ordinance  obligatory  upon  all  Christians.  Each  Church  is  formed  avowedly  upon 
the  principles  of  a  free  and  independent  republic. 

Within  the  last  25  years,  the  Church  has  extended  her  boundaries  from  Penn- 
sylvania into  Maryland,  Virginia,  Ohio,  Indiana,  Illinois,  Michigan,  and  Iowa. 

She  has  now  six  annual  elderships,  (or  conferences,)  composed  of  the  teaching 
and  ruling  elders  of  the  various  churches  in  the  bounds  of  each  eldership. 

She  has  also  a  general  eldership,  which  meets  triennially,  composed  of  dele- 
gates from  the  several  annual  elderships.

MORMOXS,  OR  LATTER  DAT  SAIXTS. 

The  founder  of  this  strange  communit}'  was  Joseph  Smith,  who  was  born  in 
Sharon,  Vt.,  December  23,  1805.  PTe  professed  to  have  received  many  visits 
from  the  angels  of  God.  He  affirmed  that  on  the  22d  of  September,  1827,  the 
angel  of  the  Lord  delivered  into  his  hands  a  new  revelation,  written  on  plates  of 
gold.  The  so-called  "  Church  of  Jesus  Christ,  or  Latter-day  Saints,"  was  or- 
ganized in  the  town  of  Manchester,  Ontario  county,  New  York.  In  1839,  after 
expulsion  from  various  places,  they  commenced  a  city  in  Hancock  county,  III.,  to 
which  they  gave  the  name  of  Nauvoo.  Here  they  erected  an  immense  building, 
which  they  dignified  with  the  name  of  "  The  temple  of  God."  They  afterwai'd 
left  Nauvoo  and  settled  in  Utah,  near  the  great  salt  lake.  They  have  sent  mis- 
sionaries into  every  part  of  Europe  and  America,  and  have  succeeded  in  gathering 
together  a  large  community. 

Their  doctrines,  if  they  may  be  dignified  by  such  a  name,  are  a  mixture  of 
fanaticism  and  licentiousness.     Their  government  is  socialistic. 

We  give  the  following  statistics  on  the  authority  of  the  representative  in  Con- 
gress from  Utah. 

There  are  about  14,000  Mormons  in  the  territory  of  Utah;  10  or  12,000  in 
Iowa,  two-thirds  of  whom  will  probably  remove  to  Utah  the  coming  season  ;  there 
are,  also,  several  thousands  at  St.  Louis,  Mo.,  and  a  few  thousands  in  other  parts 
of  the  Union. 

In  England,  there  are  40  or  50,000  ;  in  Wales,  there  are  7  or  8,000 ;  and  in 
other  parts  of  European  Countries,  they  are  to  be  found  in  considerable  numbers. 

The  Mormons  of  Utah  have  purchased  a  tract  of  countiy  in  California,  16  square 
leaETues  in  extent,  called  St.  Bernardino,  at  a  cost  of  §73,500,  on  which  they  have 
paid  $25,000. 


272  PART  IV. — CHURCH   GAZETTEER. 


SEC0:ND  ADTE^^T  BELIETERS,  (HILLERITES.) 

This  body  is  divided  on  various  points  of  doctrine.  The  following,  however,  are 
held  in  common.  The  speedy  advent  of  the  Messiah.  The  literal  resurrection  o* 
the  dead  at  his  appearance.  The  renewal  of  the  earth  as  an  eternal  home  for  the 
saints.  A  majority  believe  in  the  unconscious  state  of  all  the  dead  until  the  resur- 
rection ;  also,  that  after  the  general  j  udgment  the  wicked  will  die  a  second  -death, 
and  be  forever  as  though  they  had  not  been. 

They  have  3  weekly  and  1  semi-weekly  papers,  with  a  united  circulation  of  over 
9,000.  Preachers,  about  100.  They  claim  to  number  from  15,000  to  20,000  be- 
lievers in  the  United  States. 


ME^^XONITES. 

This  sect  takes  its  name  from  Menno  Simon,  who  was  born  in  Friesland,  1495. 
Though  originally  a  catholic  priest,  he  subsequently  counseled  with  Luther  and 
other  reformers,  and  formed  many  reformed  communities  in  various  parts  of 
Europe.  In  1683,  the  Mennonites  being  persecuted  in  Europe,  a  number  fled  into 
America,  and,  at  the  invitation  of  William  Penn,  settled  in  and  about  Germantown, 
Pa.  Their  articles  of  faith  have  been  translated  and  published  in  the  English  lan- 
guage. They  hold  the  leading  truths  of  the  gospel,  and  live  in  great  simplicity. 
Their  number  are  supposed  not  to  exceed  25,000.  They  have  240  ministers  and 
400  congregations. 


OiTISH,  OR  A3IISn  CHURCH. 

This  society  is  a  branch  of  the  Mennonite  community,  and  hold  the  peculiar  doc- 
trines of  that  body  in  a  milder  form.  They  take  their  name  from  Jacob  Amen, 
though  they  disavow  his  being  their  founder.  They  profess  to  adhere  rigidly  to 
the  confession  of  faith  adopted  at  Dortrecht  in  1632. 

Their  number  have  been  computed  by  themselves  at  120,000. 


SCHWEXKFELDERS. 

TTiis  body  takes  its  name  from  Casper  Schwenkfeld  von  Ossing,  who  was  born 
in  Lower  Silesia,  1490.  The  descendents  of  the  followers  of  this  man  emigrated 
to  this  country  in  1734,  They  settled  in  Montgomery,  Berks,  Bucks,  Lehigh 
counties,  Penn.,  where  their  grandchildren  now  reside.  They  hold  the  leading 
truths  of  the  gospel,  and  live  in  great  purity  and  temperance. 

They  have  5  churches  and  about  800  members.

present  in  Exeter  hall,  under  the  charge  of  5  prSfessors.  There  are  also  several 
Presbyterian  Churches  in  the  North,  AVest,  and  South  of  England,  in  connection 
with  the  Church  of  Scotland,  which  are  to  be  formed  into  3  presbyteries  and  1 
synod. 

From  the  official  returns  for  1850,  it  would  appear  that  there  were  then  in 
England  1,. 507,  in  Scotland  104,  in  Ireland  21,  independent  ministers;  but  of 
these,  231  were  without  a  pastoral  charge.  In  1850,  there  had  been  36  deaths  ; 
108  resignations,  removals,  and  settlements  of  pastors,  and  of  these  32  were  with- 
out settlement.  In  10  colleges  and  theological  institutions,  conducted  by  25  pro-

builtj  and  9  enlarged.     4  new  churches  had  been  formed.

London,  in  1607  ;  the  first  particular  (Calvinistic)  Church,  in  1616.  In  the  Bap- 
tist Manual,  for  1851,  there  are  the  names  given  of  1,1 17  pastors  in  England,  and 
of  17  in  Ireland  ;  but  many  of  these  are  engaged  in  secular  business.  During  the 
year,  there  had  been  98  settlements,  and  30  ministers  had  died  ;  297  students 
were  in  attendance  at  6  colleges;  15  new  chapels  had  been  erected,  and  1  en- 
larged. In  981  associated  churches  there  had  been  2,351  deaths,  777  withdraw- 
ments,  and  1,964  exclusions,  and  an  increase  of  12,155  members.

The  college  at  Trevecca  was  founded  in  1768,  and  in  1792  it  was  transferred  to 
Cheshunt.  At  the  40th  Conference,  held  in  1851,  the  revised  list  of  ministers  be- 
longing to  this  body  contains  79  names. 


FRIENDS,  (QUAKERS.) 

This  sect  rose  about  the  middle  of  the  17th  century.     Tliey  number  in  Great 
Britain  and  Ireland,  it  is  said,  about  20,000  members. 


UNITED  BRETHREN,  (MORAYIANS.) 

First  assumed  the  form  of  a  distinct  ecclesiastical  body  in  1457.  The  first  set- 
tlements in  England  were  made  about  1742.  In  Great  Britain,  the  number  of 
communicants  is  between  2,000  and  3,000. 


POPERY. 

The  follovring  statistics  are  given  in  the  Directory  for  1851,  viz. :  In  England 
and  YVales — churches  and  chapels,  597;  colleges,  10;  religious  houses  of  men, 
17;  convents,  53;  priests,  826.  In  Scotland — churches  and  chapels,  97; 
college,  1  ;  convent,  1  ;  priests,  118.  Total  number  of  priests  in  Great  Britain, 
including  the  above,  and  the  bishops  and  priests  without  any  fixed  mission,  972  ; 
being  an  increase  upon  the  number  of  last  year  of  43.  From  December,  1849,  to 
September,  1850,  9  new  popish  chapels  have  been  opened  in  Great  Britain.

Sixty  years  since,  the  proportion  between  the  whites  and  blacks,  bond  and  free,  was  4.2  to  1. 
In  1850,  it  was  5.26  to  1,  and  the  ratio  in  favor  of  the  former  race  is  increasing.  Had  the  blacks 
increased  as  fast  as  tlie  whites  during  these  sixty  years,  their  number,  on  the  first  of  June,  would 
have  been  4,657,239 ;  so  that,  in  comparison  with  the  whites,  they  have  lost,  in  this  period. 
1,035,340.  i~        » 

This  disparity  is  much  more  than  accounted  for  by  European  emigration  to  the  United  States.

SYNOPSIS  OF  THE  BUSINESS  OF  THE  SESSION. 
(continued  from  page  32,  part  i.) 

TWENTY-FIFTH  DAY. 

BOOK    DEPOSITORY    AT    WASHINGTON. 

Resolved,  That  the  agents  at  New  York  be  authorized  to  establish  a  depository  of  books  at 
Washington  at  their  discretion. 

BOOK  CONCERN. 

The  following  resolutions  were  adopted  :— 

Resolved,  That  the  purchase  of  the  lot  on  Mott  street,  and  the  erection  of  a  building  thereon,  for 
the  better  accommodation  of  the  business  of  the  Concern,  are  hereby  approved  by  the  General 
Conference. 

Resolved,  That  permission  is  hereby  granted  to  the  book  agents  at  New  York  to  dispose  of  the 
four  houses  on  Crosby  street  whenever  an  advantageous  opportunity  may  offer,  and  with  the  advice 
of  the  book  committee  erect  other  houses  on  a  part  of  the  lots  belonging  to  the  Book  Concern  on 
Mulberry  street. 

Resolved,  That  the  large  increase  of  sales  and  profits  the  last  four  years  over  the  four  years  pre- 
ceding is  highly  gratifying,  and  affords  ample  proof  of  the  ability  with  which  the  Concern  has  been 
conducted,  and  grounds  on  which  to  rest  the  expectation  that  the  views  expressed  by  the  agents 
will  be  realized  at  no  distant  day,  and  the  sales  amount  to  $250,000,  annually.  ^'■ 

Resolved,  That  the  propriety  and  expediency  of  further  reducing  the  price  of  the  books  of  the 
general  catalogue  be  referred  to  the  judgment  and  discretion  of  the  book  agents;  and  that  they  be, 
and  hereby  are,  instructed  to  review  the  list  of  prices,  and  to  reduce  the  price  of  such  book  or  books 
as  they  shall  think  may  be  safely  reduced. 

Resolved,  That  with  a  view  to  extend  the  circulation  of  the  Christian  Apologist,  published  at 
Cincinnati  among  the  Germans,  the  editors  of  our  periodicals  are  requested  to  notice  it  favorably, 
from  time  to  time,  and  urge  upon  our  ministry  and  membership  to  use  such  means  as  may  tend  to 
promote  that  end  ;  and  that  our  traveling  preachers,  also,  are  requested,  wherever  they  find  German 
people  in  their  respective  charges,  or  fields  of  labor,  to  order  from  the  agents  at  Cincinnati  specimen 
numbers  of  the  paper  to  be  shown  to  them,  which  the  agents  are  hereby  directed  to  furnish 
without  charge. 

Resolved,  That  there  shall  be  a  publishing  committee  for  the  North  Western  Christian  Advocate, 
consisting  of  one  member  from  each  of  the  following  Conferences,  to  be  selected  by  the  Conferences 
respectively,  to  wit:  Rock  River,  Michigan,  Northwestern  Indiana,  Illinois,  Iowa,  and  Wisconsin, 
whose  duty  shall  be  similar  to  that  of  the  book  committee  at  New  York  and  Cincinnati,  so  far  as 
it  may  be  applicable  to  the  establishment. 

Resolved,  That  a  committee  of  one  from  the  Illinois,  one  from  the  Southern  Illinois,  one  from 
the  Iowa,  one  from  the  Arkansas,  and  one  from  the  Missouri  Conference,  to  be  selected  by  the 
Conferences  respectively,  be  appointed  to  superintend  the  publication  of  the  paper,  authorized  to 
b©  published  at  St.  Louis,  Missouri,  and  that  on  the  nomination  of  said  committee  and  recom- 
mendation of  the  Missouri  Conference,  the  presiding  bishop  be  requested  to  appoint  an  editor  for 
said  paper  when  the  book  agents  at  Cincinnati  shall  have  determined  on  its  publication,  and  that 
the  duties  of  said  committee  shall  be  similar  to  those  of  the  publishing  committee  at  Chicago. 

Resolved,  That  there  shall  be  a  publishing  committee,  consisting  of  four  members,  to  be  selected 
by  the  California,  and  one  for  the  Oregon  Annual  Conference,  whose  duties  shall  be  similar  to  the 
book  committees  at  New  York  and  Cincinnati,  so  far  as  they  may  be  applicable  to  the  establishment. 

Resolved,  By  the  General  Conference,  that  we  are  highly  gratified  with  the  enlarged  circulation 
of  the  Christian  Advocate  and  Journal  during  the  past  four  years  ;  and  also,  that  we  regard  with 
pleasure  the  estimation  in  which  the  Quarterly  Review  is  held  by  its  patrons,  and  hereby  express 
our  strong  hope  that  its  future  circulation  may  be  commensurate  with  its  merits. 

Resolved,  That  the  character  and  usefulness  of  the  Sunday  School  Advocate,  and  Missionary 
Advocate,  respectively,  are  such  as  to  entitle  them  to  the  continued  confidence  and  support  of  the 
whole  Church. 

TRACT   SOCIETY. 
The  following  report  and  resolutions  were  adopted  :— 

Whereas,  The  bishops,  in  their  address,  have  submitted  to  the  General  Conference  the  propriety 
of  a  new  tract  organization,  that  may  awaken  a  livelier  interest  and  give  more  activity  to  our 
operations  in  this  department: 

And  whereas.  Several  Annual  Conferences  have  passed  resolutions  expressing  a  similar  desire; 
and  whereas,  the  same  is  asked  for  at  length  in  a  memorial  of  the  editor  of  tracts,  your  committee, 
after  due  consideration,  recommend  the  organization  of  a  Tract  Society  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal 
Church,  with  the  following  Constitution  : — 


PART  V. — GENERAL  INFORMATION".  293 

Art.  1.  This  association  shall  be  denominated  the  Tract  Society  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal 
Church. 

Art.  2.  Its  object  shall  be  to  diffuse  religious  knowledge,  by  the  circulation  of  the  publications 
of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  in  the  English  and  other  languages,  in  our  own  and  foreign 
countries. 

Art.  3.  Any  person  paying  to  this  society  one  dollar  per  year,  shall  be  a  member  of  the  same ; 
and  the  payment  of  ten  dollars  at  one  time,  shall  constitute  a  member  for  life ;  and  the  payment 
of  fifty  dollars  at  one  time,  shall  constitute  a  director  for  life. 

Art.  4.  Persons  constituted  life  members  by  the  payment  often  dollars,  not  designated  for  any 
special  object,  shall  be  entitled  to  receive  tracts  to  the  value  of  fifty  cents  each  year,  and  life  di- 
rectors, to  the  value  of  one  dollar  each  year.  Or,  if  they  prefer,  they  may  receive  tracts  at  any  one 
time  to  the  amount  of  half  the  sum  paid.  All  members  and  directors  are  also  entitled  to  vote  at 
the  annual  meetings  of  the  society. 

Art.  5.  The  annual  meetings  of  the  society  shall  be  held  during  the  second  or  third  week  of 
December.  A  public  anniversary  shall  also  be  held  each  year,  at  such  time  and  place  as  the  board 
of  managers  shall  determine. 

Art.  6.  The  bishops  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  shall  be  presidents  of  this  society  in 
the  order  of  their  seniority.  A  vice-president  may  be  appointed  by  each  Annual  Conference. 
There  shall  be  appointed  by  the  General  Conference  a  financial  secretary  for  this  society,  who 
shall  be  the  editor  of  the  tracts.  The  other  officers  of  this  society  shall  be  a  recording  secretary, 
a  treasurer,  and  two  elected  vice-presidents,  who  shall  severally  be  appointed  by  the  board  of 
managers. 

Art.  7.  The  funds  of  this  society  shall  be  expended,  under  the  direction  of  the  board  of  mana- 
gers, in  payment  of  the  necessary  expenses  of  the  institution,  and  in  the  promotion  of  its  general 
objects.  In  all  cases  of  gratuitous  aid,  books  and  tracts  shall  be  given  instead  of  money,  unless  the 
latter  is  strictly  necessary  to  the  accomplishment  of  a  constitutional  object. 

Art.  8.  The  board  of  managers  shall  have  power  to  enact  their  own  by-laws  ;  to  fill  vacancies 
in  the  board,  occurring  during  the  year;  to  appoint  honorary  members;  to  provide  for  the  trans- 
lotion  and  publication  of  tracts;  to  print  and  circulate  appeals  to  the  Church,  in  behalf  of  the 
benevolent  objects  of  the  society ;  to  raise  and  disburse  funds  for  those  objects;  and  to  establish 
committees  of  finance  and  appropriations  whenever  necessary. 

Art.  9.  Each  Annual  Conference  of  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  may  form  a  Conference 
Tract  Society  auxiliary  to  this,  with  power  to  adopt  such  measures  as  in  the  judgment  of  said 
Conference  are  best  calculated  to  promote  the  objects  of  this  association,  and  to  form  sub-auxiliaries 
in  its  several  circuits  and  stations.  The  presidents  of  the  Conference  auxiliary  shall  be  vice- 
presidents  of  this  society.

tudes for  whom  Christ  has  died.

the  use  of  all  proper  means  to  spread  and  consummate  those  plans  so  obviously  traceable  to  a  pro- 
pitious Providence,  and  so  richly  fraught  with  the  blessings  of  peace  and  good  will  to  men.

RECOMMENDATIONS. 


Rev.  Nathan  Bang^,  D.  D. 
I  have  rend  the  book  entitled  "  Riches  of  Grace," 
with  deep  interest,  and  think  it  admirably  calcula- 
ted to  promote  the  experience  and  practice  of 
Christian  holiness.  It  may  be  relied  upon  as  au- 
thentic, because  the  narratives  therein  recorded  are 
no  fanciful  sketches,  but  are  drawn  from  real  life, 
the  witnesses  giving  their  own  account  of  what  they 
have  "  felt  and  seen"  of  the  workings  of  the  Holy 
Spirit.  I  therefore  heartily  recommend  it  to  all  who 
wish  a  correct  and  scriptural  view  of  the  work  of 
grace  upon  the  human  heart. 


JVew  York,  Jan.  21,  1852. 


N.  BANGS. 


Rev.  J.  S.  Mitchell,  D.  D. 
Pastor  of  M.  E.  Church,  JsTorfolk  street,  JV.  York. 
This  is  indeed  a  remarkable  book.  *  *  *  Sixty- 
two  witnesses  of  various  denominations  of  Chris- 
tians, all  breathing  the  same  spirit — love,  perfect 
love.  *  *  *  Most  of  these  witnesses  are  still  liv- 
ing, and  can  testify — yea,  are  testifying — to  the 
same  momentous  truths ;  others  are  fallen  asleep, 
bearing  their  last  testimony  in  their  dying  words. 
This  book  can  not  be  read  without  profit. 


These  experiences  are  eminently  calculated  to  set 
forth  holiness  as  a  doctrine  of  the  Bible,  and  not 
merely  the  doctrine  of  a  sect,  the  testimonies  being 
from  persons  of  various  denominations.  No  truly 
enlightened  believer  can  read  this  volume  without 
feeling  that  it  is  one  which  commends  itself  to 
Christians  of  every  name. 

PHCEBE  PALMER. 
Jan.  15,  1852.  ^ 


Mrs.  Dr.  Palmer, 
Author  of  "  Way  of  Holiness,"  "  Faith  and  its 
Effects,"  Src. 
"  The  Riches  of  Grace"  contains  the  testimony 
of  sixty-two  accredited  witnesses  of  perfect  love. 
Such  is  the  pious  influence  of  these  witnesses,  that 
the  mention  of  their  names,  if  expedient,  would  in- 
•pire  the  religious  public  with  unlimited  confidence.

Rev.  Moses  Hill, 
Pastor  of  First  jyi.  E.  Church,  Hartford,  Con. 

Like  as  history  teaches  philosophy  by  examples, 
the  "  Riches  of  Grace"  teaches  Christian  holiness 
by  the  testimony  of  unimpeachable  witnesses.  *  * 
*  *  The  moral  integrity  of  all  these  witnesses  is 
such,  that  the  positive  testimony  of  any  two  of 
them  would  be  sufficient  to  estiiblish  any  fact  in  a 
court  of  justice.  They  have  no  personal  interest 
in  the  issue  of  the  case  ;  they  are  not  swayed  by 
the  peculiarities  of  a  sect,  but  are  from  different 
religious  denominations,  and  many  of  them  are 
possessed  of  highly  cultivated  minds,  and  all  of 
them  eminently  qualified  to  testify.  They  not  only 
announce  the  fact  of  having  actually  attained  the 
blessing  of  Christian  holiness,  but  give  us  the  inte- 
resting details  of  the  process  by  which  they  attained 
it;  and  though  differently  educated,  and  surround- 
ed by  different  classes  of  circumstances  and  influ- 
ences, there  is  a  surprising  agreement  in  these 
details.  I  have  read  the  book  with  great  interest 
and  profit,  and  earnestly  recommend  it  to  others.

This  Institution  for  tlie  Education  of  Young  Ladies,  is  beautifully  situ- 
ated on  the  banks  of  the  Delaware  Eiver,  near  the  grounds  of  the  late 
Joseph  Bonaparte,  and  commanding  the  same  magnificent  view  of  the 
river  and  surrounding  country.  The  railroad  constituting  the  great 
thoroughfare  between  the  North  and  South  passes  through  the  place,  thus 
rendering  it  accessible  at  all  seasons  of  the  year. 

The  branches  taught  embrace  all  comprised  in  a  thorough  education, 
including  Common  and  Higher  English,  the  Natural  Sciences,  Latin, 
Greek,  French,  Italian,  Drawing,  Painting,  and  Music  on  the  Piano  and 
Guitar. 

The  charges  vary  from  $65  to  $90  per  session  of  five  months.  The 
latter  sum  is  the  maximum  charge  for  any  or  all  the  branches,  including  all 
necessary  expenses  except  for  books  and  stationery. 

The  year  is  divided  into  two  sessions  of  five  months  each.  The  summer 
session  commences  May  1st,  and  the  winter,  November  1st.  For  Cata- 
logues containing  particulars,  address  the  Principal.

The  fact  that  FOURTEE^'  thousand  copies  of  these  books  have  been  pub-

IS  YOUR   LIFE  INSURED? 

Lord  Lyndhurst,  High  Chancellor  of  England,  in  one  of  his  discussions  pronounced  from 
the  highest  judicial  bench  in  the  world,  said,  "  a  Policy  of  Life  fnsurance  is  always  an 
evidence  of  prudent  forethought :  and  no  man  with  a  family  dependent  upon  his  labors  or 
existence,  is  free  from  reproach  if  his  life  is  not  insured." 

THE  CONNECTICUT  MUTUAL  LIFE  INSURANCE  COMPANY, 

OF  HARTFORD,  CONN., 

Was  organized  in  1846,  upon  a  strictly  mutual  plan  ;  is  no<V  the  largest  institution  of  the 
kind  in  the  United  States.  Its  receipts  during  the  last  year,  were  over  seven  hundred 
thousand  dollars.     Its  accumulated  assets  exceed 

One  ?fIilliou  of  Dollars. 

This  Company  issue  Policies  to  meet  all  the  contingencies  of  life,  which  can  be  properly 
provided  for  by  insurance,  and  which  are  detailed  at  length  in  the  Prospectus  of  the  Com- 
pany, which  may  be  had  of  their  Agents,  The  following  are  some  of  the  cases,  to  which 
hfe  insurance  is  applicable. 

By  Husbands  and  Fathers,  to  make  provision  after  their  death  for  their  widows  and 
children. 

By  the  young,  to  make  provision  for  themselves  in  their  declining  years. 

By  parents,  to  provide  endowments  for  their  children. 

By  creditors,  to  compensate  the  loss  which  the  death  of  their  debtors  might  occasion. 

By  the  borrower,  to  secure  in  case  of  death,  means  to  repay  the  loan. 

By  the  holder  of  a  lease,  dependent  on  a  life  or  lives. 

By  expectants  of  property  in  reversion,  to  insure  a  portion  of  it  against  the  contingency 
of  life,  &c. 

The  benefits  and  advantages  to  policy  holders  accruing  from  the  contributions  of  a  large 
association  of  mutual  insurers,  are  eminently  enjoyed  by  those  insured  in  this  institution,  in 
which  the  expenses  of  management  have  been  reduced  to  a  point  never  before  attained  by 
a  similar  institution.  To  which  may  be  added  the  security  acquired  against  the  fluctua- 
tions of  mortality,  so  hazardous  to  institutions  of  limited  numbers. 

Each  person  insured  in  this  Company,  becomes  a  member,  and  is  entitled  to  his  propor- 
tion of  the  surplus  or  earnings,  without  being  personally  liable  beyond  the  annual  premium 
for  the  continuance  of  his  policy.  The  dividends  are  declared  annually  ;  and  redeemed  &a 
the  funds  of  the  Company  will  justify.  Two  dividends  have  been  paid,  and  that  of  1849, 
is  now  (1852)  being  paid  during  the  current  year. 

Predicated  upon  a  system  of  mutual  security  and  mutual  benefits,  each  member  receives 
all  the  advantages  which  can  be  derived  from  an  insurance,  at  the  lowest  rates,  being  the 
actual  cost. 

Agents,  to  whom  application  can  be  made,  and  from  whom  information  may  be  derived, 
are  located  in  all  the  principal  towns  of  the  New  England  and  Western  States.
